I'm not buying the bad for the championship bit too much, it always looked like such a big stretch to me for Norris to ever recover that 50 ish point deflicit.great race, lots of action, but bad for the championship
Of course Norris should aim for that and should fight while there's still the smallest of chances . It's his job.
But for everyone else , and for the race covereages, they were just draging out hopes that should never have been there in the first place. Felt like manufactured tension to me.
