Other teams frequently challeged for and won races as well.

Moral of my story is simple. 'Set an engine formula and leave it alone for a decent period of time, things will eventually equallise between the teams and the racing will get closer as the formula goes on.Big changes as Knight says will see one team (usually but not always the richest team/s) continue to dominate, simply because they can spend money to adapt quickest.
you can stay with the current engines for 20 years, as long as they remain frozen there will be no equalization.
