Max has a 70 point lead with 9 races left, if McLaren is truly that dominate they will have no problem taking the title. I imagine there is a grain of truth in what Horner said, that they set the car up for more downforce, but every good liar weaves the truth into their deception so who knows how much that played into it. My guess is McLaren got the setup perfect with Lando, missed with Oscar while RB missed with Max.
Constructors should be easy for mclaren as they have two cars that score good points but drivers it's such a gap and max isn't dropping enough points without dnfs and other teams getting between max and lando. There are 8 races left so even allowing only one bad race for lando he needs 10 points more a race, which is max in third, just not been happening enough.
I count 9 left on the calendar, is one not being run?
If McLaren is as dominate as Lando showed this weekend Oscar will certainly be ahead of Max in a few of the remaining races. Oscar has show to have similar pace to Lando so it's not Perez with RB.
Ah my fault, miscounted.
The problem is it still needs to be 7 races in a row that lando wins and Oscar beats max, not a few. That's a huge ask, especially when the likes of Merc or Ferrari have been stealing wins here and there and it's highly unlikely that Max would win zero races between now and the end of the season.
