Probably not though, because of how insane Max's season is.
2021 with 2 equal teams was 613-585 in WCC over 22 races...probably a good benchmark for a 2-way fight.
Max alone is at 400 through 16 races, and the team at 623.
Even if another team had both drivers finish ahead of Checo in every race for an average of ~6 pts per weekend (which is very generous), RBR would lose like 96 pts, leaving them another six races to grab like 75pts and pass the 600 mark again.
ie. 600 pts is probably enough to win the WCC, and Max alone is on pace for 550pts.
