Adrian Newey reveals dramatic Honda twist over disappearing workforce
Adrian Newey revealed his thoughts on Honda’s early struggles in the 2026 season, attributing them to reliability issues causing major vibrations in the power units.
Aston Martin’s partnership with Honda for the new era in Formula 1 has faced setbacks due to the engine problems affecting the team’s pre-season preparations.
Honda had previously withdrawn from F1 after winning the championship with Max Verstappen in 2021, leading to a disruption in personnel within their Formula 1 division.
The reformed Honda team lacks the experience of the original group, as many key members had moved on to other projects during the hiatus from the sport.
Newey emphasized the significance of understanding Honda’s history and how the changes in personnel have impacted their performance in the current season.
