Honda's 'comeback' to F1 has taken another step forward...
Honda’s potential interest in building F1 engines for 2026 and beyond has been confirmed by Honda Racing president Koji Watanabe.
The potential for a continuation of this relationship on a more formal basis remains in place, particularly so following the breakdown in talks between Red Bull and Porsche regarding a works link-up for the new regulations.A soft deadline, in mid-November, was requested by the FIA in order for manufacturers to register interest in the 2026 power unit regulations, and Honda have confirmed they have put their names down on this list.
“As HRC, we have registered as a PU manufacturer after 2026,” confirmed Watanabe during Honda’s 2023 Motor Sports Activity Plan Presentation,“The F1 regulations from 2026 onwards are moving in the direction of carbon neutrality. In addition, the fact that electrification is also being promoted, and the carbon neutrality and electrification that Honda Motor Co., Ltd. is promoting, is the same. The targets match.“There is also the fact that November 15 was the deadline [for registration].
“We had some points we wanted to discuss on the legal side, to make sure that we fully covered as much as possible, which we did,” he said.
