Honda can build a pretty fast road car....can't build a modern F1 engine to save their lives...sorry McLaren....but can build a pretty fast road car

Haha @ the McLaren/Honda comment. No kidding! It has been tough watching Alonso struggle this season primarily due to the car. Interestingly enough, while watching a Formula 4 race at this year's US Grand Prix in Austin, I learned that all the F4 cars are using what is essentially a Type R motor sans turbo. It seems they can build a reliable, low power engine for racing, but obviously Formula 1 power units cannot be compared.
