Bernie Ecclestone recently tossed the bucket about the transition to current turbocharged V6 hybrid powerplants being a mistake. Even though I'm far from being totally unfavorable to turbochargers and some hybrid setups, Mercedes-Benz and Lewis Hamilton were clearly favored by this approach, since Mercedes-Benz was at least 2 years ahead the competition as it already studied hybrid powertrains for Formula One before the changes on regulations led to it becoming implemented. The field needs to be levelled back.
