As far as Mercedes team principal Toto Wolff is concerned, that's it for this season. The F1 title race is done and dusted.
Wolff made it clear in his post-Japanese Grand Prix assessment that "no one is going to catch Max this year", simply because "his driving and the car are just spectacular".
It is three wins out of three when Verstappen has seen the chequered flag this term, with his only blemish being his first mechanical retirement for two years in Australia.
The RB20 has certainly given the impression it could dominate all season long, as its predecessor did last year in winning 21 of the 22 races.
But do you agree with Wolff? Should we write off this season, and it is simply a case of who will finish best of the rest behind Verstappen?
