    Trying to make too much VTEC kick in, yo. They apparently never saw the original F&F.

    Would a Honda engine even work as an anchor for a rowboat??? I'm sure it would somehow fail at that too.

    Shouldn't the Honda racing executives be thinking about seppuku by now?

    Seriously. They bring great shame to company.

    Yea... what exactly are they getting in return for their big investment in motorsport? A massive showcase for how completely incompetent they are.

    That's really the only takeaway. It's almost poetic. Alonso goes to run the 500 because his Honda engine keeps blowing up and... his Honda engine blows up.

    That level of face palm is usually reserved for memes.

    +1000.

    If I were Alonso, I wouldn't go near a Honda again for the rest of my life. What a fiasco.

    Someone should start making t-shirts with pictures of blown Honda engines and a picture of Alonso sunbathing.

    Alonso surprised me, both his performance on track and his humility at this awards ceremony.
    I am still not a fan but he's moved up some in my book.

    Hamsandwich is a complete and utter toolbox. Zero respect for the guy, and the way the British press slobbers all over him makes me sick.
