Why is the Merc a lemon this year?
Discussion
By that I mean what is the main reason likely to be that a team that constently came up with the best car over the past 7 years producing such a terrible car this year?
Lots of staff leaving (poached), radical design idea that turned out to be a disaster, poor development decisions made by the tea boy who was suddenly made head of design?
Has there been a derth of talent from the team or is just one of these things that a happens even to the best team?

What is likely to be needing done to get it back on track or is it just a case of writing off this year and going again next year? If that's the case what will actually need to happen to make next years car be back on the pace.
This probably seems like a strange thread but I'm genuinely puzzled how a team can go from hero to zero in a year.
