Two hiccups in Monaco & Montreal. A loss of six points there, but a gain of three for fastest laps. Sodangerouslygate avoided a further concession of 7 points to Scuderia Sesto Secondo. Any remaining non 1-2 finishes will need to be covered by fastest lap points, of which 13 are still available.
No fastest laps plus all remaining 1-2 finishes will net them the value mentioned in the thread title exactly.
Well, Bottas again the weakest link, but the car was strong enough to take the slack, I suppose. Though missed out by 0,024s on the fastest lap, the fact Vettel was on new softs (but apparently couldn't fully use his ES) and only had such a small margin, well. Let's see how Austria stacks up.
They ceded 19 points in Austria. There is currently no way for them to achieve 900 points unless race points can be retroactively stripped and transferred from other teams via rules infractions. I don't know if that is possible.
Hamilton has conceded 7 points and Valtteri has conceded 10 points toward the 900 effort.
