F1 drivers are an odd one out in that you can't do that. I think even in my work, and I'm bottom rung, I'd get gardening leaving if I was moving to a competitor. I certainly wouldn't be in technical meetings.
DNFs and technical problems are a RBR speciality anyway. Dan will get plenty of those, but so will Max.
