I know from my own experience in France that with the end of your career looming, older players can sometimes overachieve, have a last hurrah and briefly roll back the years.
One of the big reasons why Memphis Grizzlies, the whole firing of Taylor Jenkins didn't make any sense for me is that they were overachieving this year.
Yeah, you can almost use the comparison with Liverpool as well, you know, finishing fourth and then a bigger drop off and manager loses their job because, OK, we've overachieved.
That imposter syndrome can push us to one end of the spectrum where we are so focused on overachieving and pushing ourselves harder and harder that we end up burning out.
Charles Leclerc had a disappointing weekend results-wise, as he's never going to be delighted with 4th place, but he can certainly be happy with his performance, given he overachieved by beating the Mercedes.
