Am I reading this right? Norris needs to finish 1P higher than Max to keep the title fight alive, 2P if Max got the fastest lap?
Yes, and "alive" is quite stretching it. Even if Norris wins every point still available in the last 3 race weekends, Verstappen only needs 24 points to secure the title. He could finish 6th three times to secure the title. Even if Verstappen doesn't get a single point in the last races, Norris needs to finish second every race and sprint and then get at least two more points through fastest laps or a win. There is still some mathematical chance but in reality over.
