Honda motorsport boss Yasuhisa Arai has claimed that it is unfair the engine maker is receiving all criticism and has rebuked doubts that the Japanese firm could make enough of a step forward over the next winter to become competitive.

if rumours are true then alonso is off to rbr-ferrari and it would be right.jenson and alonso should leave this team,they just made false promises and Honda, they gonna hang their head in shame in suzuka. tae a look at pit stop work in race, they are in league of sauber now,even basics have deserted themdiffuser wrote:
The aero team lost alot of time this year cause of Reliability, give them a chance to catch up! With the power Unit there should be HUGE gains to be had in the off season just from low hanging fruit on ERS side.
One qualifying does not a season make.
Merc has had tire issues before when it's hot. Don't take this to be that Ferrari has made a HUGE jump.
If anything, I'd be worried about RB and TR with Ferrari PU.

I don't believe those.
When was the last time RB went after a driver that wasn't a TR driver ?

Specially the British media trying their utmost to make Honda the scapegoat. Sure the engine isn't a scorcher but it's not all the engine's fault.
No way...the chassis is better than the Sauber, Mannor and the Lotus. But that's it. So number 4 from the other waydiffuser wrote:Sayeman wrote:I think some people are trying to put all the blame on Honda's shoulder.

I haven't heard anyone say that. Top 4 is all I've heard.
Oh and EB did say that more power from the PU would make the chassis go better as alot of their issues with getting the tires to turn on is coming from lack of power.
Yes, I agree. Mclaren chassis is better than Sauber and Mannor. Lotus chassis is better, look at standings.basti313 wrote:No way...the chassis is better than the Sauber, Mannor and the Lotus.
