Yep. There's two races and a sprint left after this one, so it's technically possible for Max to score 0 each time and for Norris to score 25+25+8+1+1 by winning both races, sprint, and fastest lap for a total of 60 points. (maybe 61, does Sprint have a fastest lap?) The current gap is 62 points, so Norris only needs to close the gap slightly this race to make it ok.
Of course, we're talking about it being "technically possible". Realistically, he was struggling to catch up even before last race where Max won and increased his lead.
Sprints do not have a fastest lap point.
Thanks
@Worx @formula1 Yeah. I like that itβs mathematically possible still.
Ah I forgot about the last sprint. Thanks for confirming!
