Honda ?will benefit? from Mercedes work

Honda's bid to hit the ground running when it returns to Formula 1 with McLaren in 2015 will be helped by the Woking-based outfit having a season with Mercedes' new V6 turbo, reckons rival Renault. It was confirmed last week that Honda will be making an F1 comeback in 2015 after signing a multi-year deal with McLaren. The timing of that move means that McLaren will get to evaluate the new Mercedes turbo next year, opening up the possibility that lessons taken on board will be passed on to Honda.
