Did Toto hack your account. This is assuming Mercedes are not developing and everyone else is.

Ferrari had an entire season prior to develop a car to beat Merc, hell, they can start right now on next year and they STILL will not have a contender.

Furthermore, we still do not even know if Merc is actually pushing their cars. They can still be sandbagging with some engine power in reserve.

I do not believe that Ferrari have more HP than Merc, I think there is more at play here.

I honestly think Merc is running more downforce, because they can. I also think they are dialed back because they do not need it.

I bet they laughed every day in the preseason after a day of testing watching the Red cars trying so hard, knowing they had nothing.
