Tomorrow Norris starts next to Verstappen. He will definitely try to cover up Lando so what Lando has to do is keep that 2nd place and then use his tyre temperature handling to get him in the race. All Oscar has to do is come back 3rd at worst to minimize his losses.

It's time for Norris to show if he still has what it takes to gain the championship. One last chance.

That was the plan also for the Sprint race, but...repercussion
We'll see tomorrow what the gods of racing have for us.

At least Norris has the chance tomorrow to win the race by using Mclaren's better tyre temperature, gain 7 more points than Max and possibly take the lead in the WDC.

Its a chance though as it will depend on how Red Bull handles their tyre.

Not even sure McLaren still have the tyre temp advantage it has traditionally shown in on hot tracks in qualifying in the last sector, Max was purple in both sprint and main qualifying S3 race distance may be different but the advantage doesn't seem obvious there anymore.
