Honda F1 project leader Yusuke Hasegawa has outlined a number of reasons why Honda has been struggling so badly in the beginning of the 2017 Formula One season. He confirmed that lots of problems were not discovered while running on the dynamo meter.

Engine must spin clockwise.
5.3.2 The crankshaft centre line must lie on the car centre line and 90mm (+/-0.5mm) above the
reference plane. The power unit may only transmit torque to the gearbox by means of a single
output shaft that must be co-axial with the crankshaft. The output shaft must rotate clockwise
when viewed from the front of the car.

Honda is sending on a daily basis, new parts, cables, systems and other amenities on a daily basis to UK. They had no time to test these hundreds of new cables and parts in Sakura...
This is due to the purpose adaptation issues they are encountering (to get the PU fit the new MCL32.
That sounds 2014 again!!!!
Alonso has to prepare for a long chair ready F1, and enjoy the sun during Spain tests next week...
F...! Again, may the Vtec be with them this time!
Yeah nah I call bull hey. So close to testing I'm sure Mclaren could use the Milton Keynes facility to verify wiring changes. An unless they used some of Ron's spare hares to wire it up, they must have something that works otherwise how'd they start up the motor? Although maybe that's why it sounds like its burpingJoseki wrote:http://www.marca.com/en/more-sports/201 ... b45c1.html
It's just a different spin of this "article".
Well I've heard insider news that Honda have miscalculated and instead of 1000hp the PU is developing 1000kw and have covered 50000 miles on the dyno with that PU.Lucky wrote:http://vtec.net/forums/one-message?message_id=1307115Insider news from underground press and McLaren chassis team:

50,000hrs on dyno may be realistic if including all configurations.
He was being sarcastic.Wooooosh.Roostfactor wrote:Wishfull thinking. 1341hp? Um...no. Besides, Honda does not miscalculate.hemichromis wrote:

He was being critical of the fact that these insider sources are more likely outsider bullshitters.
