Mercedes have in every aspect dominated the first four races of the year in a way never seen before in F1: - Every pole position! - Every fastest lap! - Every race victory! - Led every race lap! The Ferrari F2004, Williams-Renault FW14B or the McLaren-Honda MP4-4 were not nearly as dominant. Time for the other teams to forget 2014 and put all resources into their car development for 2015. ...

Well its getting closer. Rosberg had to fight his way through the field even thought he should have been 2nd all along. Think Rosberg's car had issues during the whole race. Again I decided after 10 laps to go back to bed. The last race was good but China was beyond boring

They have started strong, but there is a lot of untapped energy and resource in other cars. a quote from Ferrari forums

Seconds? Do me a lemon... Doubtless it would make a huge difference, but I think that's pushing it. Although, it does remain to be seen, how much of the performance of the Merc is from having enough power to drag an inefficient package around very quick as opposed to say Red Bull, who have tons of downforce but not enough power to overcome the drag? |

I wonder if McLaren are reconsidering their Honda contract for next year. |

Do they have the choice? And the way that Mercedes engine is performing this year, I don't think they will give it away too easily. |
