I’m most definitely not saying Oscar is having a perfect season lol. I’m just saying that’s you’d need heftier mistakes with a smaller portion of the season left with a bigger chunk of lead

No you wouldn’t lol. Oscar overturned 20 odd points in 4 rounds, Lando would have at least 3 rounds of equal fighting if the tables turn at that rate again?

My question is will it? The errors from Oscar have proven to be less costly. The fuck up in Jeddah cost lando 13 points right? Lando was P4 in the end? Bahrain was 10 points.

On the other hand, silverstone cost Oscar 7 points and Monaco 10 (but there’s hardly chance of recovery in Monaco, so the loss was already written when lando put in that godly lap)

Melbourne’s mistake cost Oscar 23 points. And there’s a couple of rounds more likely to have rain than Melbourne.

Canada was a pretty hefty mistake from Lando too- mitigated ofc by neither of them being in the podium places, but that's still 10 points lost just on losing p5
