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.
And there have been some moments this year where generally he's been clearly the faster Cadillac driver, but he's also had a couple of...
what I would say like needless setbacks at times.
And I think part of that comes from the kind of, not desperation, but the hung... He is... I actually had quite a good chat with Checo just casually on Thursday in Monaco for 20, 30 minutes.
And he's so...
He's so fired up by this comeback.
He's chasing something so important to him in what he's doing right now that if he sees kind of some things there for him to grab that represents a bit of an overachievement with Cadillac, even a minor one, I think he's going to go for it.
So I think he's right at the hyper end of what his level of aggression is.
And not in a bad way.
