Here's another case of a driver screwing himself! In a race probably remembered most as Ayrton Senna's coming out party, as documented in Asif Kapadia's film Senna, Alain Prost was leading the rain-hit 1984 Monaco Grand Prix, but with conditions becoming more dangerous with each progressing lap, began signaling to officials to stop the race. With Senna displaying his legendary wet racing skills in pursuit of the lead, race director Jacky Ickx ordered the checkered flag to be waved as Prost crossed the line to complete his 32nd lap (he was already stopping his car on the track), a decision many thought was a favor to the Frenchman to ensure the win. However, with the race not completing 3/4 of the original distance, he was awarded half of the points usually given for a win. It eventually turned out that with the full 6 points that would have been awarded for second place, Prost would have won his first championship. How many points did Prost lose the 1984 championship by?
0.5
