It might be too early to say this but it does look like Lewis has sealed the deal after the win in Canada. Valtteri Bottas was never going to be a Challenge for Lewis when it came to a season-long battle. He seems to have gotten back to his old habits off late as well. For Lewis with a car as good as the one he has, there's hardly any challenge for him.

Sure Ferrari might swoop a win or two here and there at Monza or Spa but the downforce advantage that Mercedes have, Lewis will be the man to beat everywhere. To add to it, Lewis seems to have the lady luck smile at him more often than not. The win in Monaco could have ended when he had contact with Max but he got through, then the fortuitous win at Canada while his teammate had an off-day. Lewis seems to have everything under control right now.
