I mean , it's not like they changed the rules almost on a race by race basis when we were winning is it? Oh wait....

LOL, how very true, Adrian Newey came up with some brilliant designs like part of the chassis would drop due to air friction heating special metal parts up so they would sag reducing air flow under the car (Not sure how true this is) and front wing design……
Every team will try to hold onto any advantage they have for as long as possible and I’m sure RBR did this over the 4 years they were very successful. You can’t take away they have done incredibly well in the short space of time they have been in the sport.
They just picked the wrong engine partner
On another note, I didn’t want Lewis to win the championship but he proved to be the better (Mercedes) driver. So all I can say is well done Lewis
