Cells working separately in the same paddock never works out well. The successful ones have all shared info between teams. RBR has no reason to not give both drivers an ideal setup tuned to their settings.

BTW, found it interesting to see more of the drama of past years in the Netflix show. Cant wait to see the behind-the-press action for this past year. That said, I usually watch replays in spare time, so maybe I missed the drama live :P
