^^^this, this and this^^^
Honda are making noises about coming back to F1 in 2026 (not that they will have left anyway)
F1 doesn't have any Far Eastern car manufacturers, only European car manufacturers
No better way for the FIA to entice Honda back into the sport than a Honda powered car winning the drivers championship in Japan
Over the years I've been very lucky to have played a small part in designing 18x Honda powered F1 cars and one Honda powered F1 land speed record car
Of all the car manufacturer 'works' race teams I've worked for, it's the Honda racing culture I've clicked with the best
We both do racing for the same reasons
Really hoping Verstappen wins tomorrow, not for his/RB's benefit but for the satisfaction I'd get from having had the opportunity of helping Honda achieve their dream win!
