And then that car just sort of rather easily then is able to do those lap times and quite predictably then get ahead. voice-verified

So, yeah, I was never a fan of it back in the 2000s. voice-verified

And honestly, I think it'd be even worse now because back then, obviously, they had really good simulations still. voice-verified

But right now, there would just be, you know, the way that algorithms have advanced and AI has advanced and will advance even more if this was coming in the 2030s. voice-verified

It would just, yeah, everything would just converge on the best possible fuel strategy and everything would just be done by numbers and it would be driving to a lap time. voice-verified

And yeah, it would just be disastrous for F1. voice-verified

So at the moment, at least they're only considering it. voice-verified

And I hope that analysis will reflect what I've just said. voice-verified

And yeah, we don't go down this path because I think it would be a horrid mistake. voice-verified

We'd often ruin qualifying because, you know, before you'd have different fuel levels in qualifying. voice-verified

So you'd have this great qualifying result where, you know, maybe you've got a Toyota suddenly on the front row. voice-verified

You've got an old Toyota front row and it seems like a really good, interesting race to set up. voice-verified

But then, of course, you think about it for a second and you get the fuel totals and you realize, well, it's because they were running light. voice-verified

So we're going to have this race where they may be leading at the start, but then they're inevitably going to have to make more pit stops than the faster cars behind and those faster cars are going to come through. voice-verified

So you've kind of got the fastest packages qualifying fifth or sixth. voice-verified

but they've obviously got the right amount of fuel. voice-verified

Anyone running lighter than qualifies ahead. voice-verified

So yes, it does create more strategic variance, but I think F1 fans will see through that, especially now with so much data we have. voice-verified

I think it just wouldn't work. voice-verified

You'd have to make a lot of tweaks compared to how it was because otherwise, yeah, you get variation, but it's all artificial. voice-verified
