If Fisichella finishes on podium in race 9 (or in any of the last 3 races), the points scored by Renault will be 87 (or more).
Hence, even if Honda drivers take top two ranks in all three races they will end up with 85 points. i.e. 31 + 3 (8 +10) = 31+ 54 = 85 points.
Hence, in this case Honda won't be able to win the ' 'Constructor's Championship'.

Directions: Read the Passage and answer the questions follow.Rajesh was absolutely thrilled about the upcoming IFL Championship. It was his fourth year with the team, and he was elected captain by his teammates and coaches. For the past three years, his dedication and work ethic had been excellent. Rajesh was a natural leader and the IFL Championship and the team meant the world to him. The team’s form in matches leading up to the IFL had been fantastic. With new talents in the team, Rajesh felt the team was better positioned to make a run for the championship this year. The past three years had been very tough for Rajesh having been on the losing end in the semi-finals.Before every season, the team gets together and lays out a series of rules that have to be followed by team members throughout the course of the season. For achieving the ultimate goal of winning the championship, the team decided that they had to be more disciplined in practice and in their off the field activities as well. This year, the main rule voted for by players, coaches and other team staff was a ban on alcohol. Rajesh, being the team captain, felt that if his team could stay disciplined and stay away from alcohol then his team would be successful. Any violation of this rule would lead to suspension by the team for two games and a hefty fine.All team members were reminded of the rule before each and every game. This was to ensure that the point of no alcohol was made clear, while also outlining how vital it was to follow team rules.As the season progressed Rajesh, as team captain, had to deal with multiple minor problems - teammates not showing up on time for practice, unnecessary arguments with referees during the game etc. Rajesh occasionally had to confront his teammates and bring them back in line to avoid breaking rules. Most problems were settled with conversation, in a way consistent with team rules and goals.Rajesh and the team made it all the way to the semifinals with ease. They had been winning games largely due to the contribution of the player of the team, Mukesh. Mukesh had been very versatile throughout the year, and had played multiple positions with ease. But, on the eve of the semifinal, Mukesh violated a major team rule - Mukesh was seen drinking and partying in a pub by Rakesh, a mutual friend of Mukesh and Rajesh.Rajesh was notified of the event by Rakesh immediately. Rajesh at first could not believe it, but as team captain he knew he had to confront Mukesh and sort it out. During the confrontation, Mukesh admitted that temptation had got the better of him, and he had indeed consumed alcohol earlier. Mukesh was also extremely apologetic knowing that he had let the team down by breaking the rule they had agreed to abide by throughout the season.Rajesh knows Mukesh is an important player for the semifinal and wants to win the Championship, which is the goal of the team. How should Rajesh handle the situation?
