Well, the premise of my post wasn't so much RedBull, Ferrari and McLaren getting their act together and avoiding mistakes in the races to come (which seems unlikely, given that Ferrari probably will continue to make poor strategy decisions, RedBull will probably continue to have problems with mechanical DNFs, and McLaren will sooner or later be slapped with their traditional controversial penalties [all 3 with tongue-in-cheek, mind you]), but rather Mercedes' announced upgrade package being a success, catapulting them on the same level as the other 3... in which case Rosberg would be able to win races, and challenge for the championship, NOT having lost much ground in the races where Mercedes really wasn't up to snuff yet ...
