Mercedes have refined their motor to accomodate more altitude. I would say its on par now with Honda and easily. RedBull were never quicker in Q3 even after they aborted their last effort because one car moving out of the way was hard to deal with LOL!!
The race pace for Mercedes and RedBull is virtually even. Temps were hotter yesterday on track. Tire wear will be key but its not clear who has the real advantage except Mercedes are up to 12kmh faster on the straight!
