Yeah, I think in Max's head, the ideal scenario isn't we get to next March and he's sat on his yacht in Monaco having a good time with the family.

His ideal scenario is that F1 regs are in a place where the driver can...

get back to driving a car on the edge and feeling that every lap is, you know, as far as they could take it with a Red Bull team around him that's able to fight at the front and he can go out and win and enjoy it and feel like this is pure racing.

I think that's his ideal scenario.

But there may be facts outside his control that force him down the path where he needs just to step back and

See where the land lies.

I don't think the Red Bull form is the key.

I think the key thing is this regulation shift that has –

Has the situation now changed a bit because the direction of travel is to step away from the core elements that he doesn't like?

So I think whereas back in March time, start of the season, we absolutely hated these regulations.

And it seems that...

there was a robustness and resistance for anyone to change things.

Actually, the change, the speed of change has, momentum's gathered much quicker than I think any of us anticipated.

Even in Miami, if you asked me Sunday night in Miami, when would I anticipate a potential move away from 50-50, I would have said 28, impossible beforehand.

And now, suddenly that's on the table.

There's a lot of complications to get there still, and it may not happen.

But I think his future will be dictated by where these rules go.

And I think this is a timeframe.

teams need decisions in the next two to three weeks about what they're doing for 27.

So I think we will have a much better idea of where we're going.
