#F1 McLaren reaching ‘fork in the road’ with ‘lost’ Honda – “serious concerns”

McLaren is nearing a “fork in the road” in its Honda relationship, with executive director Zak Brown expressing “serious concerns” about the Japanese manufacturer’s ability to recover from its current situation.

McLaren is rooted to the bottom of the constructors’ championship having failed to score a point this season, mainly due to Honda’s third consecutive failure to produce a competitive or reliable engine. Honda was due to bring an upgrade to the Canadian Grand Prix this weekend but looks set to miss that deadline.

After watching Fernando Alonso’s bid to win last month’s Indy 500 thwarted by a Honda engine failure, Brown said “all options are on the table”. The American has hinted that the latest disappointment has tested his patience.

“Honda’s working very hard but they seem a bit lost,” Brown told Reuters
