BBC Sport reported Honda changed the leadership of its Formula 1 engine programme after a slow start to its return this season. Based on the supplied material, the move remains reported rather than officially confirmed.
The BBC said the change followed a disappointing opening phase of Honda’s comeback campaign. The supplied source did not confirm the revised structure, the personnel involved or the timing of the switch.
Honda was founded in 1948 and raced in Formula 1 across eight seasons from 1964 to 2008. In that period, the Japanese constructor took three wins and no titles.
