The timing of the VSC car today was a bit bizarre with Hulk just at the side of the race track, basically waited for Norris to get P1 and then called it.

Norris isn't good enough to claw back the points deficit I don't think. That Mclaren has looked in a league of its own post Miami in the vast majority of races but not taken advantage of it nearly enough.

The problem that McLaren have at the moment is that Ferrari pulls a win or even a 1-2 finish from their left nut at some circuits (or they forget the race strategy and win by accident).

Lando winning WDC is possible. However, I don't think he has the ability for it. He needs to win every race, needs Piastri to finish between him and Max and needs Ferrari to overtake Max with one or both cars. I think that is too much to ask.

McLaren WCC, Max WDC is still my bet. Lando wins 1 or 2 more races, but Max finishes on podium during all of them. 1 more Ferrari 1-2 finish crushes the Lando WDC 2024 dream.

Saw some calculations about Lando winning all of the rest of races and he'd be still 1 point behind Max, if the Dutchman finishes 2nd every race.

Hard to imagine Lando winning all races remaining, he's won only three (all this season) and Ferrari are more dominant than McLaren recently.
The thing is... Ferrari will fuck up the strategy 50% of the time. Used to be 75%, but it has gone down since the team leadership was switched from Italian to French.

Huge f**k up by Red Bull in Q2, already 4-5 crashes in qualy... the race this afternoon will be bonkers... Max will be ultra aggressive and cars will be flying off the track left, right and center...

Max defending 50 odd points advantage where poor performance tonight means he's in earshot of Lando starting from 12th and Aston Martin + Williams driving cars thrown together in 3 hours

I expect him to be behind McLarens within 15 laps unless they all have to drive uber safe to not yeet it into the wall again
