Sorry to have misled.
Thanks. So Mercedes domination is more about having more time and resources to understand how to build the rest of the car to best take advantage of the engine than the engine itself. I.e there is still hope for all Benz powered cars. It looks like it's going to be an exceedingly tough year for Renault and Ferrari powered teams though... Just look at Lotus, what a mess and free fall from last year.
