It's an institution and an organisation that is inherently resistant to change for starters, but also it is just more complicated than, well, can we just replicate everything we were doing over there?
I don't think really that's what the intelligent top drivers do, for one thing, but it is...
As Mark says, it's about getting the best out of them.
And in a way, with what Ferrari's done with Hamilton eventually, it's kind of the inverse of the usual phrase.
They've put their mouth where their money is.
It's one thing to shell out all of the cash...
because Ferrari can afford it, their partners would have facilitated it, they've got all of these marketing benefits from having Lewis Hamilton on board the team.
Actually, paying someone an absolutely metric F-tonne of money to come and drive for your F1 team is the easy part of it.
But then actually doing the stuff that they want to do, going out on a limb for that driver, especially when, as Mark pointed out, it's not been the fastest driver.
So you're taking...
a punt a sort of calculated punt on well let's give him the benefit of the doubt because we're already giving him the benefit of tens of millions but let's actually do some stuff differently because that's really really hard to do that's hard for any team to do
let alone a team that is steeped in certain ways of working.
And I appreciate that speaking in a generality, and it might sound a bit stereotypical of, you know, Ferrari, slightly shambolic, doesn't work the right way.
But it hasn't won in a meaningful way, i.e.
a championship, in a really, really long time for a reason.
So to finally start doing things a bit differently and run the car differently, change configurations, go away from long-term partners, even if it's only a part move away, that's a massive sort of, it's a show of confidence in Hamilton, but it's also just a kind of a,
What's the best way of putting it?
A line in the sand, almost, of, well, we're going to do absolutely everything we can.
No excuses here.
Let's do it.
