Championship back on

So in Qatar, we need Max to win the race, Oscar to come second, Lando to come 9th, and then in the sprint, Oscar to win, Max in 8th and Lando behind Max. There's other ways to do it as well of course but that sets up a three way tie going into Abu Dhabi.

Colossal fumble by McLaren. Can't believe Verstappen is equal in points to Piastri now.
McLaren drivers Lando Norris and Oscar Piastri have been disqualified from the Las Vegas Grand Prix after both their cars were found not to comply with technical regulations.
Post-race, the rearmost skid wear on both McLaren MCL39 machines was found to be below the minimum 9mm thickness by technical delegates on inspection.
Incredible work from McLaren in the second half of this season to give max a viable shot at the championship.
Statement by McLaren team principal Andrea Stella:
βDuring the race, both cars experienced unexpected, high levels of porpoising not seen in the Practice sessions, which led to excessive contact with the ground.
We are investigating the reasons for this behaviour of the car, including the effect of accidental damage sustained by both cars, which we found after the race, and that led to an increase of movement of the floor.
We apologise to Lando and Oscar for the loss of points today, at a critical time in their Championship campaigns after two strong performances from them all weekend. As a team, we also apologise to our partners and fans, whose support means so much.β

A year after first reports of McLaren cheating w/ skid blocks surfaced, finally caught. So are they gonna disqualify them for the whole season? Because they definitely been running them the whole time. Last week in brasil they were already found out. This week they had to run without. And boom: Plank wear.
