Teams have made this mistake numerous times over the years. It's always a trade-off between running the car low enough to gain an aerodynamic advantage from the floor, vs rubbing the skid plate too much. It sucks, but when fighting for the WDC, everything lies in the margins | ||

He needs: to win the race and Norris to be 4th or worse, knowing that Mc Laren would swap Norris and Piastri if necessary and that Mercedes will probably help Mc Laren, who is a client team, if necessary. If Norris DNF, he needs Piastri not to win the race. Mc Laren is score faster than anyone else as it stands and Piastri absolutely excels on high downforce tracks. I give Norris 75% chance, Max 15% and Piastri 10%. Will still be extremely exciting. | ||

Hope I'm wrong, this would be a heartbreaking way to lose the WDC. Lando DNF is pretty much the only realistic way for Max to win the title. Otherwise he has to get fourth or worse with Piastri somehow ending up even further behind (as otherwise he'll hand Lando the position for sure). But you never know what'll happen in turn 1. Nothing is out of the question | ||

But it is not decided yet. There are STILL 3 drivers that can win.  | ||

I said Max needs cars between him and Lando and used Merc as an example because they are the most capable to do so. | ||

Hope I'm wrong, this would be a heartbreaking way to lose the WDC. Lando had a DNF a while back that gave momentum back to Piastri, and he’s really responded phenomenally when there were question marks over his mental strength, he crushed it. Then we had the double DQ last time out, leaving things finely, finely poised. Max is of course Max and a phenomenon, don’t think that’s in dispute! It does feel like it’d be really harsh if Lando didn’t pull it off, in these particular circumstances though. | ||
