Like anyone else reading this, my first concern is that Steve is OK. If, indeed, he is calling a halt for the time being, I would be very happy to make a contribution towards a future attempt. However, unless some very convincing explanation emerges for the lack of communication from the back-up team, this contribution will be dependent on a change of crew chief.
A heroic ride which continues to attract huge following and interest, shamefully let down by an incomprehensible lack of communication by the support team. We don’t need carefully honed essays; just a few words of reassurance, please.
