In fact ferrari hasnt broken most of those records:
Most Formula 1 Constructor Wins In A Season
The most wins by a constructor in a Formula 1 season is 15 (out of 16 races), by McLaren in 1988. McLaren's Ayrton Senna notched up eight wins and three seconds and Alain Prost took seven wins and seven seconds. The McLarens, powered by Honda engines, amassed over three times the points of their nearest rivals, Ferrari.

and when Ferrari got the 221 points they only had 50 points by the 5th race compared to the 82 points they have now at the end of the 5th race.
Yeah I realized that after I posted that second post. The first post has yet to be broken though and it still just demonstrates the f1 has a history of dynasties so people are overreacting.

though obviously this still holds Most 1-2 Finishes (Season) McLaren (1988) 10
and realize theres 1 more race to make more points.

So this is like the most wins in a row ever in F1 ? or just counting from the 1st 5 races ?
The most consecutive wins in total is 9 over the 1952 and 1953 seasons by Alberto Ascari driving a Ferrari.

The most consective wins in a season is as mentioned by the others above - Clark, Mansell, and Schumacher.

In fact, Jim Clark won 6 consecutive races in 1965 that he attended. However since he missed the Monaco GP in the middle to attend the Indy 500, only 5 in a row count for this statistic.
