I'm not expecting a shipment to depart from Shanghai in the next 3 weeks. It will take just under 3 weeks for the shipments to get to Suez and so I think we have about 5-6 weeks to clear the canal and the backlog - therefore at the moment I am hopeful it will not affect. Where it may still have an affect is the delay to existing shipping schedules ie the ships will be out of position. This may cause (more) congestion within the port of Shanghai with just the 2 berths available. Fortuneately at the moment there is plenty of spare RoRo shipping capacity available to call on from S Korea to meet Tesla's target sailing dates. We had 3 shipments to the UK in Q1 and at the moment I am expecting just 2 in Q2.
If the canal is not clear by this time next week then a contingency plan may need to be produced but for 5000 cars it might be easier, cheaper and less risk to just not produce them and reallocate the production rather than risk them getting held up, incurring large costs and be undelivered by the end of Q2, but we are not anywhere near a decision point for that to happen, yet.
