Create a transition for the border-radius property of .box. Give transition a dur of .6 sec, a delay of 1 sec, linear.

This looks right to me, any suggestions?

style.css 
/* Complete the challenge by writing CSS below */

.box {
  transition: border-radius .6s cubic-bezier(0, 0, 1, 1) 1s;
}

.box:hover {
    background: #F08080;
    border-radius: 50%;
}

I don't think cubic bezier is necessary here since it is asking for linear. Keep the order in mind as well:

transition: [transition-property] [transition-duration] [transition-timing-function] [transition-delay];

Also, this challenge can be a bit frustrating for two reasons, 1) you automatically assume that shorthand will be accepted and it doesn't seem to accept it. 2) you also automatically assume that you can use the transition property without the webkit prefix, and that doesn't seem to work either. I have shared the longhand method below:

-webkit-transition-property: border-radius;
-webkit-transition-duration: .6s; 
-webkit-transition-delay: 1s;
-webkit-transition-timing-function: linear;
