Yes, but it also only takes 1 Verstappen retirement to really bring things closer.

I don’t disagree that it’s a long shot at this point though. If Red Bull can stay in the mix for podiums (and Verstappen is always a threat there) his WDC is pretty safe with the lead he’s got now.

Isn’t it like 40 points? 1 win by Lando and 1 retirement by Max in 8 races brings it to 15 points, which Lando can keep leap in a couple races.

Ah then nope. Typical McLaren making decisions so bad that makes me cringe.

McLaren could easily win world title here if not for their arch nemesis: McLaren!
