Scott Mitchell-Malm

But an example of how not like, I don't want to say ill thought through, but to your point that it isn't this, you know, super well strategized, it's going to be over this many years and each year we're going to do this.

Toyota rebranded that Toyota Gazoo Racing element and the way it sort of splits its works programs and its supported programs.

literally as Haas was announcing itself as like TGR Haas F1 team for the year.

So Haas carries the initials of something that doesn't actually exist within the Toyota structure as of the start of this year.

And that's an example of how like the kind of ad hoc nature of expanding this can potentially play against it.

I would say that the...

The main thing that I think I'd like them to avoid is while the idea of utilising that Cologne facility is all well and good, I don't think that should happen unless it comes when raining back, pulling back something else.

I think it would be a mistake if there was too much of a dependency on yet another location in the mix.

It's taken Haas a very long time.

Kamatsu's done a very good job on this side with his technical leadership team.

In terms of making the most of that kind of Banbury-Marinello alliance, the dependency on Dallara has been reduced slightly with other contractors, I think.

But...

I don't think you'd want to have Banbury plus Marinello plus Dallara doing a bit, plus Cologne doing a bit.

That's all getting a little bit too disparate for an organisation that's already fairly stretched.

Again, I think it comes back to...

What could Toyota support if Haas were able to go a little bit clean?

They're not going to make a campus like Aston Martin's done at Silverstone.

I think that would be silly to expect that.

But is there another site within the UK that would allow for something new or them to move into somewhere that already exists that could be repurposed or retrofitted for F1 needs?

Because...
