I doubt Mercedes has figured it out. It feels like they say they have leading into the next race every time, then they perform poorly (relative to their expectations), then they complain that the upgrades haven't worked, then leading into the next race week they say they've worked it out and THIS time they'll be closer to Red Bull. I doubt they'll figure it out this season. I doubt they'll figure it out next season either. I reckon we'll see Red Bull dominate till the 2026 regulation changes when they partner with Ford and develop their own power units. Then we may get a changing of the guard finally. Though if rumour is correct and Alphatauri (or Hugo Boss Bulls Racing 🤣) are using the rb19 next year, at least that might been more cars fighting for podiums. Now that would be interesting.
