Yeah, no way he runs the table. He'd have to win 17 of the remaining 22 races to pass Vettel lifetime.
If he wins 17 total (including Bahrain) he would tie Vettel for lifetime wins, and would also break Schumacher's record for highest % of races won in a season (Schumacher won 13/18).
I think 17 wins would reasonably be the greatest F1 season ever, so even though I think he wins the championship it isn't obvious to me that'll happen. If Ferrari can finish races and have reasonable pit stop strategy they should win a few, Alonso looks like he might grab one or two, and you'd think Mercedes should grab a couple.
