Still, that is a big gap now and the order started to change *before* the rule was put in place, one might argue McLaren was faster several races before the break already and that with better strategies Norris would be ever closer in points...
I'm starting to think the true RedBull pace is at Sergio Perez Level, and what we saw this year was Max dragging it by the scruff of its neck with immense talent...
Having watched F1 since 1981, I am used to teams falling out contention year over year, but mid season, and to that extent, that is a sight to behold! (and I'm enjoying it) It's also almost more of a McLaren takeoff performance (the rest of the teams seem more or less close and stable relative to one another). I wonder what they found, and if it's legit too or if a future rule will shuffle that again.. Cool season !

Strange that RB's dominance came to an end not long
after you-know-who said he was leaving.
Coincidence?
