    Although the statistic would be insane and likely never repeated in history, I don’t want Red Bull to win every race this year. Someone else other than Max or Checo needs to win for once.

      It’d be insane if they managed to pull it off. Max is extremely dominant, but they only need to get unlucky once. Even making it this far without throwing away a win due to a mistake/bad luck/mechanical problem/rain is almost unbelievable.

      It wouldn’t surprise me if another team snatched a win here or there in the latter half of the season. Aside from potential trip-ups, it probably wouldn’t make sense for Red Bull to develop the car much further. They’ve already got it in the bag and are better off focussing on next year; that might give other teams the chance to catch up a little bit.

      Any other year I would have thought it was impossible. I can’t think of a track that will catch them out now, but obviously anything can happen.
