So you need some compromise element in there.
You can make it tough.
And equally, you've got to work out you need engines for all the teams on the grid.
At the moment, you know, cost cap for a manufacturer, 140 million.
They're forced to sell power units to customers for around about 20.
So you can work the maths out yourself in terms of do you want to have a...
A championship where everyone's going to have to work out their own engine, but they're going to have to pay full whack for it.
So suddenly budgets are going up by 50, 60 million.
I'm not sure that's a good route for Formula One either.
So you need, while you can do the rules themselves, you need to inject some common sense to it and come up with a rule set that is attractive for enough people to make the whole thing sustainable.
Yeah, it's one of my favourite Grand Prix.
There's some weird quirks in it, like to get to the media centre, there's two options.
You can be boring and walk down a corridor and get in a lift, or you can pop out of the paddock and get in a golf buggy that then drives you up this kind of helix rotation thing to the top.
or you can alternatively you can go down based on my experience is how many times i've got lost there's more than two ways to do that which was quite fun this morning i had a coffee in my hand going to try to find some people to talk about various stuff and then realized that actually the helix descent is actually quite bumpy and probably not ideal to have a hot cup of coffee in your lap um
Yeah.
And the media center, I think the first time we were in here was a bit weird because there's lots of corridors and staircases and lifts.
I've endlessly spent the week.
If you come down a level to see some people.
There is a lift on this floor, but we're now on day four.
I'm here.
