After watching the porche carrera cup race earlier I'm giving up on F1, k@k boring.

It's getting to that time of the year to start getting the calculators out. There are 8 Grand Prix and 3 sprints left this year. That works out to 232 points still up for grabs.

Max is currently 145 points ahead of Checo, 194 ahead of Alonso and 200 up on Lewis. Everyone else is more than 232 back and mathematically out of contention. Assuming Max gets 26 points and Checo comes 2nd then Max will seal his 3rd WDC in Qatar.

Constructor-wise there are 397 points available. RB are 310 ahead of Merc, 355 ahead of Ferrari and 366 ahead of Aston. The earliest RB can wrap it would be Japan.

Update after this morning's race. There are 6 Grand Prix and 3 sprints for a total of 180 points left this season. Max is 173 points ahead of Sergio, with everyone else already out of contention. For Max to clinch the title at the Qatar sprint he needs to finish no more than 1 place behind Sergio.

RB have sewed up the constructors in Japan but there are some interesting battles left for the minor places with Merc 20 points ahead of Ferrari. There are still 309 constructor points up for grabs.

Not a bad race, Max and Perez were in their own class again, unfortunately one was top class and the other the special needs class.

Well done to Max for winning the constructors for RB.

Based on his performances this year, and yes, Checo does have a contract for next year, but he shouldn't be surprised if he is demoted to the AT seat or event reserve driver role.

I have no idea what the point of that was. Just leave the guy. Penalties are moot if you DNF.

Not necessarily, they can be carried over if the stewards opt to do it.

Perez and Red Bull exposed a laughable F1 penalty loophole

Sergio Perez rejoining the Japanese Grand Prix 26 laps down just to avoid a potential grid penalty was a laughable piece of Formula 1 bureaucracy that needs to be prevented in future, says Valentin Khorounzhiy

Article 54.3 of the sporting regulations covers what penalties the stewards may impose on any driver involved in an incident. This is the regulation that allows five/10-second penalties, drive-throughs and stop/go.

Section d of this reg contains a provision allowing the stewards to carry over a penalty if a driver cannot serve it in a race.

This states that: "If any of the four (4) penalties above are imposed upon a driver, and that driver is unable to serve the penalty due to retirement from the sprint session or the race, the stewards may impose a grid place penalty on the driver at his next race".

I'm not arguing the rules, I'm arguing the point of the rules. If the penalty is dealt in the final lap, then sure, other than that just enforce it for the current race. The next race is another event.

All is in order again in F1 land. Max was on a mission this weekend, my goodness did he just not dominate every day.

Well done to the Mclaren boys, future champs for sure. I really hope they can keep the momentum going for next year. Ferarri looks much better than earlier in the season, hopefully a few more podiums for them as well coming up. Merc looks avg at best atm. Where the hell has Aston's performance gone? Easy the biggest drop off of all
teams ito performance.

Perez, Stroll and Sargeant are right now the worst drivers on the grid. Sargeant one can still blame on him being a rookie, but the other two have no excuses. How much money is Stroll and Perez costing their respective teams?

Whatever RB is saying in interviews is probably the opposite of what is happening behind the scenes. I am betting that he does not drive next year.

Lawson is good enough to drive in F1, it is a pity he is not getting a seat for next year.

Let lawson take Perez's place...

Would be great to see, but at the same time I wouldn't want to put lawson in such a toxic and career ending seat.
