Huh? What are you talking about?
You went off on four different tangents there. Why does everything have to be driver versus driver? Sigh.
I'm talking about how George Russell will gel with Mr. Musconi and if Musconi's conservative style will suit him well.
I was basing my answer in your question/comments… You started with: “That side of the garage has been a bit weak after Nico left”… Who’s fault is it that Bottas side of the garage was weak? That’s the question I guess… You also make a very interesting comment: Tony Ross stayed, but you didn’t sense the same enthusiasm he had with Nico… How do you sense any Race Engineer enthusiasm? I mean, is it the tone of their voice when they communicate with their driver? Are you a part of the meetings pre-race and debrief afterwards? Someway somehow you have made and assessment on his “enthusiasm”, curious what’s the basis for it.
Then you talk about “Some Musconi guy” (a little disrespectful for my taste) and you didn’t really see “Any Brilliant Moves”… Have you seeing any brilliant moves from other race engineers? I follow F1 way more than I should and not once have I been able to spot a “Brilliant Move” from a performance engineer (which I’m sure they do those type of moves… but the fans simply don’t have access to that information, unless of course you have access to their internal communication to know what each engineer brings to the table on a weekly basis).
Then you finally make a comment that you can see George getting frustrated if he doesn’t find a way to tell with him… Which I guess, it’s possible… Like it is possible for every single driver in the grid that is changing engineers and even maybe for some that are still working with their previous ones… And about Musconi’s “Conservative Style”, how did you came up with that conclusion? Have you met him?… All I know about him is that he has been with the team since the Brawn GP days and that has received the Team’s trophy at the podium a few times.
