I really wounder how much edge they had pre 2022 simply due to engine power that let them overcome inefficient aero. RB had shat engines for a long time and invested a ton into aero it seems and now with reliable pu its really paying of for them..for merc though it looks like current pu has same power or maybe less then others and their aero understanding is sub par, even when compared to customer teams.
It's possible. 2021 and beyond I certainly started noticing mediocre pitstops and too-safe strategies in a way I hadn't before. Whether it was all engine or not I'm not sure, but the team certainly had weaknesses masked by their dominance.
