There was an instruction to indycar teams using honda power not to offer him a seat or else have the engine supply withdrawn, the company was very upset with his comments when racing with mclaren.

[...] You´ll have to provide some reliable source to convice someone about that #-o

I know japaneese culture, and they´re far from revanchist and their honour values are above most other countries. I can see them upset with theirselves because of their very poor perfomance and reliability, not with Alonso because of complaining about that.

They did promise some perfomance wich never was accomplished, then those parts who suffered that poor perfomance (McLaren and Alonso) complained. Only someone with a very childish attitude would get upset with them, any mature person will get upset with himself because he broke his promise

Sorry but, did you read the link? :roll:

"team boss Michael Andretti insisted "Honda has no issues with Alonso""

"Alonso competing in the World Endurance Championship with Honda's rival Toyota is understood to be a further complication."

"An HPD spokesperson reiterated to Autosport that "Alonso is one of the premier racing drivers of this generation, and we very much enjoyed working with him at the 2017 Indianapolis 500."

"Having Alonso as a driver would be an obvious benefit for any team or manufacturer."


If you read it, please explain how did you get to this conclusion despite the article saying the above:

Must have been confused the dialogue i had with my father who also is an f1 tragic.

The conversion reffered to Max Biaggi swearing at the head of honda hrc when he was the works rider, such was the power and influence of hrc that doors were closed for further contract negotiation all through the paddock. He went to superbikes.

If you understand asian people, they dont like loud and rude western people, they can take deep offense to abusive language.

Edit; call came through

24 hours of lemons.

Another prestigious 24 hour race can't hurt his resume.

He should try GT3. Maybe drive the 720S.
F1 is dead.
