Mateschitz believes Mercedes out of reach again

Red Bull baron and F1 team owner Dietrich Mateschitz does not think his outfit can mount a serious world championship challenge in 2015. The Austrian billionaire made an ultra-rare paddock visit this week at the opening test of the pre-season. After Jerez, Mateschitz said: 'Mercedes is again out of reach. I think if we are able to reduce the gap, that would be good.' Mateschitz also witnessed works partner Renault stumble at Jerez with a reliability problem for its uprated turbo V6, but noted: 'If they manage to reduce the horse power deficit by 40 or 50, we will be in an area where, with a good car, we can put pressure on Mercedes.'
