So it was, you know, Lando made the difference in an era in 2026 where drivers haven't often been able to be a step above matched

Max was much more adrift at this point last year. matched

Came back very, very, very close. matched

don't forget Antonio's got an engine penalty coming up Monza so he's going to potentially lose some ground there as well so I don't I don't think you can say definitely Lando is gunning for the championship but there is a direction of travel the same circumstances as last year where pending the upgrade war which I'm sure we're going to go into matched

The sniff of it's there where it wasn't at all there, I don't think, three or four races ago. matched

Yeah, this was Toto's explanation for afterwards, that this was not necessarily in response to Canada, but it's in response to the evidence over the early part of the season that if you get involved in battling someone else with this generation of cars... matched

you lose an awful lot of time. matched

The time loss... I mean, in a normal rule set where you don't have this 50-50 battery, if you're battling someone else, you lose a little bit of time. matched

But with this generation, if you start battling, the time loss... matched

is exponential it's huge so this is what this is what fueled the decision to swap the positions that if they were going to start battling they just drop themselves back into the ferraris behind and you'd not only lose one car off the podium you probably lose both off the podium and you've lost a golden opportunity so it's a decision based on matched

the risk of yo-yo racing impacting things rather than a championship thing, rather than how the race all played out. matched

And it's been something that Toto's openly talked about for a while, that we will not allow our drivers to race if it's going to compromise and risk losing position. matched

Because what matters in the end is the final position for those two cars. matched

So I think it's understandable in the circumstances and it ensured that both drivers made it to the podium. matched

This has been an intriguing discussion point all weekend, actually, that we arrived here post-summer break. matched

What's clearly going to be a development war over the second phase of the season. matched

Ferrari came with one of its big upgrades. matched

McLaren had part two... matched

of its second major upgrade of the season, Mercedes came with almost nothing, which was fascinating because it's talked all year about playing the long game. matched

It's going to space things out. matched
