It would be funny if it wasn't such a sad situation to start 2017 following the past two seasons. I hope it's just an anomaly and Honda can be on its way to get it's mojo back on the new 2017 power unit by tomorrow. Maybe someone forgot to torque the oil line to spec or something.. LOL

^ I'm not surprised that they have issues given that their engine is a new design. Hopefully they work out the reliability woes over the season and feature regularly in Q3 and the Top 5. As of now, based on looks and mileage alone, I think Mercedes is ahead, with Ferrari thereabouts. But Red Bull could be sandbagging for all we know

The intake ports on the Mclaren and the Haas seem so small compared to the other cars; I wonder how much this affects the engine?
