I would say they all are regreting this Indy project, since it casted an even larger shadow over the allready problematic issue.

Actually Honda has done what was better for themselves. They gave themselves the best chance of winning, although some drivers were bound to have engine failures.

Fernando...please get out of this organization named Honda! Unbelievable...I am not an Alonso fan but I really wanted him to win it! So sad...hilarious Honda! Every single championship they race in they have problems!! MotoGP...their bike can't brake or accelerate! Indycar...their engine can't do 500 miles! Formula 1...their engine is underpowered and can't even run for 2 races!

I think Alonso will have Honda pole bearers at his funeral... So they can let him down one last time

Yeah that's true...and Sato won in a Honda! I really believe that when Alonso leaves Honda everything will be ok...he must carry a jinx with him! :wink:

I think this was a great project for McLaren and Alonso, the publicity they got from this was crazy, Alonso has once again confirmed that he is one of the best ever and one of the most popular ever.

I'm happy that Takuma won, that was long overdue.
