It makes a little bit less sense.
It's more opaque without that Brembo statement, which then makes it quite clear that there's a bit of an issue there with Brembo being such a long-term partner of Ferrari and sort of being blamed for driver discomfort and issues, but also being kind of quietly...
phased out so they can do some other stuff.
But in making that statement and pushing back on Leclerc's criticism, it brought it much more to the surface and made it a lot more visible.
So it'd be interesting to gauge what the consequences are, if any, on that.
One thing I was very curious about when this first emerged, and certainly in the context of what Leclerc was saying last weekend...
Because I think this is a bit of a smoking gun.
His remark about three of his four breaks basically switching off because they'd lost temperature and he couldn't get them back on.
And what Mark was explaining there about the difference in the initial stopping power for the Hamilton style and the greater modulation for the Leclerc style.
I don't think that works with these cars and the way that the engines use because you... Correct me if I'm wrong here, guys, but basically everybody's pretty much running... They're not using the front brakes in the way that they were before because so much is being done on the rear axle from the engine.
So my guess would be that when you're modulating it, when you're not putting that peak pressure in the way that Leclerc wants to...
you're just dealing with brakes that aren't responding quite as well.
And actually, if you've got less of that braking being done on the front axle, that greater kind of initial input and bite that you're getting from the Hamilton style is presumably more beneficial as long as you don't go too far and start inducing lock-ups, which these cars are kind of prone to because those front brakes aren't being used as much.
One of the best in F1, if you listen to Checo.
And I would say, certainly...
to borrow a little bit of your answer from the Gasly question you responded to probably in the conversation for the top 10 if we were going to do one now because he's been very good this year it's just there's a bit of an irony to the fact that he's just lost his and Cadillac's big breakthrough result first points finish of the season maybe their only chance to score a point who knows certainly their best so far by a long way because of
what you would normally categorise as a basic error.
I'm surprised we don't see... I always say this when this happens.
I'm surprised we don't see it more often, like out of position or whatever.
But he'd been really fast that weekend, but it had been a messy race from his side.
