I mean why would they carry on? There are no constructors points for them any more, one of their drivers is almost certain to win. So what’s the point?

They just need to keep their reliability. So no new bits and the cars aren’t even going to be allowed to drive on their fastest limit – I guess. That’s why the Ferrari’s were so much faster. Ron needs both of his drivers to finish the rest of the races in at least 3rd and 4th which will be easier if they are both on the limit. This way he can be calmer when they are just racing each other. Under these conditions the reliability should be bullet proof and you don’t have to worry about your rival turning the wick up – you control both wicks.
