Freak races, of course they can.

Very, very hard.

Yeah, and don't forget, I think you're right, because what is fundamentally different about a new rule set than a mature rule set, it's how fast people can develop the cars, right?

The High Performance Podcast

Absolutely.

The cars now have, compared to their potential, even the Mercedes compared to the potential, right?

If you ran this Mercedes, everybody looks at this Mercedes and says, what a great car.

You run this Mercedes against the Mercedes in 18 months' time,

It's a harder job for them.

But like this two-week gap, I think that's what we're talking about, right?

The High Performance Podcast

Or this two-race gap.

which is a month gap or whatever, when you don't have to concentrate on that grind of just taking the car to the circuit and all of the work that generates.

Because it's not just there's a group of people that are over here on stage left, the operational 60 and then the other people that go to the track and the rest of the factory doesn't really get involved in that.
