RBR seem to be hanging in there. They are still up there despite everything

Of course rule changes have the potential to mix things up, but the best budgeted teams usually end up on top. Mercedes simply have better resources than others
It wasn't that many. Mercedes got their first win, at the 2012 Chinese GP, with Nico Rosberg. In 2013, they were runners up in the WCC, with three wins; Rosberg at Monaco and Silverstone, Hamilton at the Hungaroring. However, Hamilton and Rosberg between them got 9 podiums.
