How Honda could supply a second F1 team
As Honda continues to make progress alongside McLaren, the possibility of it supplying a second Formula 1 team increases. And there's a willing partner waiting in the wings
When Honda reformed its alliance with McLaren ahead of the 2015 Formula 1 season, an agreement was made whereby both parties had to approve if the Japanese manufacturer would supply a second team.
Initially, there was no real interest from either side to do so given Honda's struggles for performance and reliability in the first season. McLaren wanted to be the sole focus while Honda got on top of its problems, and Honda didn't want to consider stretching itself until it had its foundations in place.
