OK, well spotted. I'll acknowledge that one time, but if this turns into a 20 page thread based on one typo, I'll be too busy to contribute significantly.

You see this sort of championship time and time again when the runaway leader goes through a bad patch but is somehow able to just do enough to win the title in the end. This is usually because they are able to dig themselves out of a hole for one last big-result.

I can see Jenson winning one more race this year and that will be enough for him to hobble over the line. I dunno I could be wrong.

Well, yeah - problem is he doesn't do diddly-squat - the other drivers are doing it for him.

Well, he's not fighting too hard at the moment :-\
He's confused and frustrated, he'll get through it in time.

Maybe. Thing is, the last time a driver had such a bad run of results and still won the championship was Schumacher in 2000 where he retired from three consecutive grands prix (France, Austria, Germany) but that was preceded by a win and succeeded by two second places and four wins. In fact, going back all the way back to 1950, no driver has had five consecutive average-to-poor results and gone on to win the world championship.
