Looking at the constructors from a trajectory angle rather than current points: Red Bull are scoring consistently but their gap over second is shrinking every round. McLaren have had two double-points finishes and zero retirements which is actually their most operationally clean start to a season in years. Ferrari's scoring is volatile — Leclerc brings home big points, Sainz has had two DNFs from reliability. Mercedes look genuinely improved but Hamilton's qualifying deficit costs them 4-5 points per weekend. Aston Martin are punching above their consistent pace. If McLaren keep the reliability they could be leading constructors by round ten.

Some of the gap-closing has coincided with RB mechanical issues.
