According to autoracer:

- Goal is to close the gap to Racing Bull and Alpine
- Be ahead of Audi and Haas ( and Williams and Cadillac)

They will need a lot of seconds, but we know the first seconds are the easiest.

This mean, they think the Honda can recover something like 70hp ? Sounds ambitious
I can't help but :D
Forget RacingBulls/Alpine, or even Audi/Haas,
first let them go ahead of Cadillac. That should be the honest aim. Because it will take them atleast 2 race weekends to figure out the energy management that will optimize 'what they have in hand'. Actual performance will come only later.

So rumor from Spain is Honda delivered an engine that didn't fit into the chassis this winter.....all hell broke loose and everything was a compromise until now.
DAZN collaborator Roldán Rodriguez said this on his channel.

Nevertheless, I wouldn't be surprised if Honda designed an engine, Newey came aboard and change the requirements and Honda could not adapt fast enough. It seem to me that AM is focused on putting all the blame on Honda when they built a sub average car.
