@Bill, it stands in the sentences above the picture of Asaki:
──パワーユニットから話が離れますが、メルセデスのステアリングは衝撃でしたか。
浅木センター長:衝撃ですよ。何をやっているんだろうと。あの発想は凄いです。僕らもいろんなアイデアを出すけど、FIAにダメ出しされたり(笑)。そこは正直、政治力もかかわってきます。
Not so good translated, but hey...
が I can talk about the power unit, but was the Mercedes steering wheel a shock?
Asaki: It was a shock. What are they doing? That idea is amazing. We came up with various ideas,
but the FIA didn't allowed to do it (laughs). To be honest, it also involves political power.
To me, if I understand correctly, the interest part of this interview,is how Honda is involved in some degree with aero o mechanical ideas to be applied at the RB16. If I recall correctly, prior to the Austria GP that Honda ask Red Bull to change the setup in the front suspension because it is interfering with the cooling of the PU so they can´t turn up the power, we all know the results after that.
Well, isnt that how a works relation is supposed to work(pun intended)? I am sure Mercedes and Ferrari work the same way. But must be a big step up compared to Renault.
Renault that declared that this winter, they only gain reliability, no power.
And that this year, they will only have one evolution SPEC 2, focusing as well on reliability, and that's it
So this will make again some power difference in engine, I believe that 2019 it was quite close, but in 2020 with Mercedes big gains, Honda good gains, and Renault nothing, we will see again noticable difference between engines
