Triple world champion Niki Lauda says he is frustrated to see Mercedes not getting the credit it deserves for trying to help Formula One against its best interests. The German constructor has been comfortably dominating the sport in the latest turbo era, securing two championship doubles, 32 wins, and 36 poles since 2014. Mercedes has recently came under repeated attack from F1 commercial rights boss Bernie Ecclestone, who is wary of its growing influence as it supplies four of the 11 teams currently enrolled in the championship.
