I can't beleive more people who think tech companies are bloated dont use this argument. Its super obvious to people who can build a Twitter clone or even a website. Even if you wanted to get a product off the ground you could probably hire a bunch of people and then let 75% of them go once its built, keep 25% for maintenence. Google however I think is different. They built a simple UI with some algorithmic genius behind it. Much like we are seeing with openAi and ChatGPT. Then they started to just diverge into seperate things like AI for instance. But they maintained their best product.

Merc's and ferrari's big edge is r&d. F1 provides a lot of research for the batteries for the big companies who want to produce high hp ev's, Ferrari and Merc. Merc holds the world record of 1000km driven on a single charge. Its a concept car but still. They mention specifically that they used merc f1 engineers with also the help of the r&d of the f1 team. In the long run tesla will just be another car company with the big guys back on top because of this r&d from motorsport. Not just merc either eventually NASCAR will use hybrid v8s and companies like toyota, chevy, ford etc. will get all of this research and put it into real cars. This is speculation but its been happening with combustion engines for years. A lot of the reason for good MPG cars is motorsport.
