It wasn't a decision he came up with overnight, but one he had been considering and observing for the whole European debut season before making it.
Back in Turkey, he had felt anchored to Fatih, actively needed in every step of his privateer journey after leaving the academy. Even then, he was acting more as a chief engineer than a coach. Fatih seemed to have an innate sense of how to drive effectively, no matter the situation. Burak kept waiting for that feeling to hit a ceiling, a point where a teacher would be needed to push him further, but in the five years they had worked together, that time never came.
However, when they moved to Europe, he finally witnessed that even the chief engineer role he had shouldered in Turkey was now being handled by professionals like Steve and John, who had studied and gained experience in that area. They simply did the job better than he could.
