    It sounds realistic. The effects of RB’s cost cap penalty will kick in in a few races, and with the lead they have they’ll be better off developing next year’s car. It’s better for them to win the championship by a small margin than by a landslide.

      Red Bull’s lead is pretty big though, Mercedes has to catch up quite a bit more to match their pace.

      Yeah I think so too. But this means there’s a big chance they’ll have an advantage at the start of next year too while other teams keep trying to catch up.
