3 points

This year we have 4 to 5 competent teams at the top each race. The other teams are just fighting for scraps this season. Just look at the points distribution it’s more skewed towards the top 5 teams compared to last year. Even when cars are much closer to each other during qualifying the bottom teams just can’t cross that gap during race day since two midfielders have leapfrogged the rest of F1.5
