Honda was apparently caught off guard by the fact that it apparently was not 1985 anymore and the Turbo Engine technology had changed.

Isn't the real problem that Honda was given a spec and size requirement for the engine which they designed the entire system around, only to have McLaren inform them late on that the body would be smaller due to improved aero? (Because having a full power engine would be pointless if they lost 0.5 a second a lap to poor aero, right?)

Just 10 loving teams to remember. I don't get this attitude at all. How terrible is your ADHD? I mean, if this was MotoGP or something where beyond the manufacturer teams you have all these random independant teams then sure. But, no, it's 10 teams in an extremely heavily publicized sport. Are you senile? Alzheimer's? Michael Schumacher? Come on, man.

Simple answer: I'm not emotionally invested in the teams that are there to make up the numbers, they seem to change ownership every other week and I'm not interested enough to give a gently caress.

It's not even about giving a gently caress. I don't give a gently caress about them. But I at least don't pretend to act like I don't know the name of them.

Wirth1000 posted:It's not even about giving a gently caress. I don't give a gently caress about them. Jesus christ, can't you just shut the gently caress up? Yes, I was totally pretending to not know the name of the current de facto back marker team. Wait, no.. no I wasn't. I know their current name is MANOR... the point I was making was that I couldn't remember whether they were formed from what started as HRT or what started as the other one that wasn't Lotus. I'm sorry if my busy life doesn't give me room to remember insignificant bullshit that is not important to me in the slightest bit. Guess I'm just not a big enough F1 fan
