The remaining challenge this year is to perform well at Suzuka.

And try to have as much or more win than Ferrari. They are one down for now
Good luck with that, Ferrari really found something. They have Merc scared. They order Bottas to slow down and not get in front of Hamilton.
That was actually to cover off Albon who would have also passed by and would wreck Lewis tyres trying to overtake Albon. So Bottas was asked to slow down and keep Albon with him
Pretty sure Bottas was lapping 2 sec a lap faster than Albon before he was asked to slow down.

2 sec a lap?! That is not true. See for yourself.

Albon was just behind Bottas, and he would have overtaken Hamilton too if Bottas maintained his pace.

Yamamoto confirmed there will be another engine to be introduced by Japanese GP for all four cars.
Spec is not specified but the article speculates they will take another Spec 4 in Russia getting grid penalties, and use them in Japan.

In a different article, Tanabe said he wants to confirm Spec 4 performance in a track like Singapore. It makes sense if another engine is to be introduced.
i don't get it there is no mention here?!!
no turbo upgrade?!!

Doesn't sound like there will be any updates or grid penalties; Max, Helmut and Honda make no mention of either, unless Tanabe mentions something tomorrow? Looks like they're going to Suzuka with the current Spec 4 and the new fuel Exxon said they were bringing there.

a quote from f1maximaal web site
Dario Izzo, employee at the ExxonMobil team working for Red Bull Racing, acknowledges that Red Bull has been using the same fuel mix all year round. "We haven't changed that yet," Izzo admits.
Also Izzo confirms that the fuel giant has come up with an improved 'mix' for the Honda engine. A specific launch date is not mentioned, but the first tests are said to be 'positive'.

How about the new Turbo??
Reading that you’d have to believe that it is not going to be introduced for Max, Alex or Pierre’s cars. I suppose there is still a chance they introduce it on Daniil’s...

That was my first thought too, and when everything goes smooth with the new Turbo, what then?
All the other drivers a new Turbo (and other components) on Saturday?

When a few days ago I was raising questions about Honda reliability and related development schedule, I was downvoted and called a "troll".
Now all clients have at least +5 on the grid even without new TC spec... What is wrong with Honda S4 ? I would definitely not deem current situation as accetable.

Have you been down-voted? This time they say to have low mileage ICE'S.

Because your point only made sense if the changes or failures are for reliability reasons. Simple really

Great. Last time spec4 ICEs were installed in Spa and Monza, irc. If they are doing this again what reason do you think it is?
