Merc has years of spending hundreds of millions in development of their car over the recent years... aero, drive train, tech, etc

Also, having 2 really good drivers doesn't hurt either


all teams run a similar spec engine, but there are only 4 engine providers at the moment... Ferrari, Mercedes, Renault, and Honda

Next year there will be a cost cap of 145 Million (I believe), which will help to bridge the gap between the haves and have nots

I did hear them talking about this so it’ll definitely be interesting so see if the other teams can catch up.

Thanks for the info guys

That's great to hear. Between this and NASCAR's schedule shakeup/Gen 7 next year should be really fun for racing

Last I heard, all the 2021 rules changes got pushed back to 2022 because of Corona virus. But yea, the new rule changes should spice things up a bit.
