Of course now that their scapegoat is gone they’re being upfront about the fact that they absolutely botched the new regulations and recovering at this stage is damn near impossible. Now they’re willing to admit that Key James is a failure who couldn’t turn the car around in line with DR’s input because he doesn’t fucking know how despite them acknowledging that the flaw is structural and is a characteristic of the car so much that their TP jumped ships to a team who had 10 DNFs last year bc he knows it’s a sinking ship. They’re now spending the entirety of december managing expectations before the car was even driven cause they don’t have a struggling race winner to blame for their upcoming clown show and are forced to take accountability for their own actions.
