Now, we could have made it earlier, but my goal in all of this is not anything more than to find where we have issues and fix them immediately.

And I guarantee you this winter basically flushed everything out that was ever going to be flushed out.

Now, what I'm pleased with is the following.

What I wanted to demonstrate is with this five-week gap that we had between Suzuka to Miami, that we're not the Williams of old, that we can turn ourselves around and bring performance to the car and treat every single day as a sprint to effectively do so.

Sadly, not infinitely.

That would be a lot better, but a significant amount more performance.

We brought a lot, whether it was through vehicle dynamics packages, aerodynamic packages, exhaust blowing, ways of working, software systems.

There was a lot on the table.

There was 32 scopes of work.

Not all delivered.

I'd say the majority delivered, though, and with real tangible performance that came with it at the same time.

And what I love about this sport is...

is that you can demonstrate to the world and to the individuals that are pouring their heart and soul into it, the impact of their work is visible.

The bad news for the businesses, I've done the same with these next three weeks.

So we are challenging ourselves to, again, for Canada, bring more performance again.

Yeah, as much as it sounds negative to just be static and where you were, I think fifth would be resolved.

I think more important than the championship position is demonstrating to the world that by the end of the season, we'll back up and fighting as we were at the end of last year.

Because what that clearly demonstrates is a turnaround and the ability to add performance in a competitive way to the car.

So very different with Formula One to pretty much every other racing series in the world is that it's a prototype game.

So the car that we bring to every race, we aim to bring performance, aerodynamic components, vehicle dynamics components, suspension.
