How this is worked out

Points: 25-18-15-12-10-8-6-4-2-1 for the first ten in a Grand Prix and 8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1 for the first eight in a sprint. There is no point for the fastest lap. A non-scoring finish or a retirement scores nothing.
What is left to win is 25 points for every Grand Prix still to run and 8 for every sprint. A driver is still in the title race if their points plus that total is more than the leader's.
If that total only equals the leader's points, the tie-break decides, as the FIA Sporting Regulations set it: most wins, then most second places, then most thirds, and so on, counting Grand Prix finishes only. We test it in the best case for the challenger: they win everything that is left and the leader scores nothing more.
Every sentence above is generated from the stored results and the race calendar, including which remaining rounds are sprint weekends, so it changes by itself after each race.
We assume the other finishing places can be filled by drivers who are themselves out of the title race, so a "stays alive" is a mathematical possibility, not a prediction. A "the title is won" or "is out" is certain.
