Max Verstappen and Red Bull are currently leading the drivers and constructors standings respectively. With 10 races to go in the season, can anyone catch them this season? For me, Max is almost certain to win the drivers championship but it will be a close race between Red Bull and McLaren for the constructors championship. The recent results indicate that McLaren is the favorite to win the constructors championship as both of their drivers are getting good results with consistently good performances, unlike Red Bull where Checo is struggling to produce good results.
It seems WDC is pretty much won by Max after his race win yesterday but the WCC race is very much alive between McLaren and Ferrari.
Of course the truth of the matter is, it's never over until it's over Remember Lewis blowing an engine in Sepang which eventually cost him the title. You could have got 100-1 on that bet. If not for bad luck ( single incidents) I believe Lewis and Michael could both have 9 titles. Sort of ironic too because both of them fighting to defend titles blew engines ( Suzuka and Sepang ) Both were pushing from the front, too hard ? Has Max used 6 motors because he is doing the same fending off Lando ? We will never know P.S. Can't believe Suzuka is not in your dictionary ( facepalm )
We are into the final race weekend of the season and WCC hasn't decided yet. McLaren is going into the race with a 21-point lead and with Leclerc getting a 10-place grid penalty I think McLaren would be able to win the Championship on Sunday without a lot of trouble.
