And that always helped me understand it a lot more because it was more than just, oh, Vettel's my driver or whatever.
It's like there's a close relationship there.
So...
You weren't kind of dealing in automatically rational arguments.
And so that's what they're trying to deal with.
And so you've got one driver who's furious and is being perhaps enabled in his fury because Helmut Marko is not doing the sort of Ross Braun at Harath 97 thing and saying, maybe have another look at the incident.
Just have a check, see what you think.
So he's just got one senior person there.
So that kind of lets Vettel continue to be furious.
You've got the other driver who's annoyed already because it's happened.
But probably Webber's quite happy initially because he's thought, well, I've not won the race, but I've gained more points than I would have done.
And I've got the moral high ground.
And then he discovers the moral high ground is being stolen from him.
So he's like, oh, what's going on here?
So you've got all of this mess going on.
And it does come down to that Marco Vettel relationship.
And...
It was always going to be a thing and it didn't purely blow up because of that interview.
But if Will with the camera hadn't been there and then obviously that cornered Marco and allowed him to really say it, that certainly wouldn't have added the accelerant that that did.
So that did change the whole thing.
