    Aston is completely hampered by the Honda engine. If Lance Strolls comments are to believe they’re 4 seconds, yes you read it right 4 seconds, slower than everyone else. Any other problem they might have is almost minuscule compared to the engine problem. Unless they can magically fix their engine they’re guaranteed to end up as the backmarker team and even Cadillac is going to beat them because at least the Ferrari engine works.

      Not really surprising. Honda had shutdown their f1 r&d department completely. They are basically starting from scratch. The only thing they did in the last 3 years was basically tech support for Red Bull.
