We found out a couple of things: 1. The Mercs don't do well in dirty air, and 2). They rely heavily on practice starts to calibrate the clutches for the race start. Without that, they have struggled to get grip off the line.
Until Merc find an answer to #2, they will struggle with #1.
This race has provided a gold mine of data for the engineers and aero guys for many months to come.
