Alonso, who will be present on December 3: the 'Hall of fame' of the FIA, does not even appear in the promotional poster of Honda 'Thanks Day'.

The question is always the same. Was there a need to end the relationship like that?
This was completely unnecessary.

let the haters hate. it's like cocaine running through their veins. hatecocaine.

Meanwhile, Alonso is going for the win in a Toyota whilst Honda only brought him 3 years DNF's even in Indy.

brings me a question though, IF Alonso will try INDY next year......with MCLAREN, what ENGINE will they use?!

What enemy do you speak @Monoah2u

Really, here you can not say anything that people are offended by everything.

Alonso can run in the Indy with Honda or Chevrolet, it's not a big deal. But the support of the factory is what it will not have. (is what I'm trying to say).

Mclaren vs Honda. This should not become a "hatred". But "yes" in a healthy competition of who is the best on track. People must calm down

A Honda powered driver won Indy, and he happened to be an ex Honda F1 driver :) Also, Andretti said Honda gives the option for power or reliability bias in the 500. Andretti said he always chooses power.
Honda!

Someone made him an offer. It was the best offer he got and it work with his schedule.

I think that you're just looking for trouble where there isn't.
I don't even see an entry from Honda or Renault at lemans.

Congratulations, that’s the biggest misrepresentation of facts I’ve read all season. You’re halfway to becoming a professional journalist

Not sure how that can be a misrepresentation of facts when really it's talking about how the Honda engineers felt.

The relationship was over when Honda botched it in testing.

I don't think the relationship was over yet, but McLaren surely lost all hopes of being competitive soon doing things like Honda wanted. It was the beginning of the end.

Yes. If you're looking for Alonso, he was not invited.
Is this speculation , your opinion, or official that he was not invited? Do you have an official link somewhere that says he was not invited by Honda on purpose?
Honda launches a list of guest pilots. You can see it here: http://www.honda.co.jp/enjoyhonda/hrtd/2017/driver/

With a message below that says. "Pilots may be subject to change without prior notice."

About Alonso, we will never know the truth.


he was busy
