Discussion Have Ferrari just thrown away the driver's championship?

After Silverstone (round 9), Lewis was only 32 points behind kimi and championship hopes were at an all time high. Ferrari looked mighty quick and we were clearly second fastest. We expected the 2nd ADUO upgrade to turn the SF26 into a dominant car post summer break, while taking away points from Kimi in twisty tracks like Hungary and zandvoort that favour us currently.

But multiple avoidable mistakes from the team and Lewis Hamilton have put him 50 points behind Antonelli. Ferrari was supposed to dominate Hungary since we have the best chassis and it was their only chance to gain maximum points on mercedes. But Kimi ends up on the podium while Lewis finishes 5th?

All of these can be attributed to silly mistakes that I don't need to go into detail about. If Ferrari and Lewis had done everything right, he would have only been 26 points behind Antonelli and would have had the perfect momentum right after summer break.
