Differential between Merc and customer teams isn't that surprising I wouldn't say.
We're talking about a sport where an exhaust blown diffuser won championships. Remember that RB and Vettel were never fastest in the speed traps, didn't have overwhelming power. Merc have the strongest engine and look to have the best aero now as well. Some of the onboards with Lewis today looked very '13 Vettle'esque. No twitchiness from the chassis, no countersteer required. Full control.
Rest of the field is done for. Ferrari can't make up 30 seconds. As far as driver's championship is concerned, Nico is the only hope.
Ferrari v Williams should be interesting.
Gutted for Kimi.
