Asutria 2002 - we're all so much wiser in retrospect, aren't we? McLaren were so dominant at the start of 98, but the 4 points that DC (for one reason or another, depending on what and who you believe) gifter to Mika came quite handy in the end, didn't they? But by the same logic the 4 points MS gifter to Irvine at Malaysia went as wasted as the 4 points he gifter Rubens in USA last year. All in retrospect though.

I agree DC won't win another race, probably ever!
Melbourne 1998 was a very exceptional set of circumstances, one we won't discuss here for Ray's sake
Don't follow your logic I'm afraid. Mika didn't need the 4 points in the end, he beat Shumacher by over 10. Despite being gited two wins by teammates in 1999 (plus one by Coulthard debatably) Irvine still didn't have enough. Hell, he even won in a illegal car

What was wasted was all the times Irvine relented to Schumacher in the first half of the season. With those few extra points he might have won the big one
Of course everything is in retrospect, until we can see into the future hindsight is all we got!
