What sucks about the cost cap is that all the teams started from where they were in 2020 in terms of facilities, infrastructure, tools, software, etc. James Vowles complained that he is having to spend capEx at Williams on things every other team already has, so he's fighting an uphill battle both trying to get spend to get Williams on the same page AND to improve the car.

He said in a recent interview that capEx needs to be distributed like wind tunnel time for it to be totally fair.
