Contrary to us though, he has had a taste of how good this car is in the simulators and still jumped ship. Time will indeed tell everyone but that's not encouraging.
That's just not how it works lol
We've seen how McLaren turned the tables last year. Merc dumped their zero pod design also half way the season, and they caught up quite well. So now a full season on a concept that seems to suit them better. Take a few good upgrades and who knows. Will they challenge RB from day 1 ? Don't think so, but I can see them catching up later throughout the season. Again time will tell, but I don't rule them out in any form or shape.
I understand that. I just find it suspicious that the guy who drives the car doesn't believe in it enough to stay with the team that won him championships even though he saw it progress first hand.
