    There also are more races than ever before. On average he needs to catch 7 points per race. That’s difficult but doable with the current point structure and amount of races left

      That’s the point. He needs to perform at 100%, but he isn’t doing that. He’s making mistakes, and so is his team, despite having one of the best or blatantly the best car for many races now. So far, McLaren has thrown away more opportunities than they have capitalized on. Norris isn’t even the fastest McLaren driver anymore. I don’t see them pulling this off.

      And their car on straights is so much faster than red bull. Can’t remember what races are left though.
