Can the 1997 McLaren go perfect?

In f1and0 the car is roughly 65% of your result — the ceiling. With a pace of 68, this one is rated backmarker — wins are the miracle, not the season (vanishingly rare to sweep with two strong drivers). Great drivers in a slow car win nothing; almost anyone in a dominant car sweeps. Prove it:
