Honda to unveil 2015 F1 power unit
The video will debut at the Honda stand at Suzuka Circuit (2-5 October) and will be shared with the public from 6 October 2014.
"Working toward Honda's F1 participation starting in the 2015 season, development of the power unit is entering its prime phase at our R&D facility in Sakura, Japan, where we transferred our automobile motor sports development earlier this year," comments Yasuhisa Arai, senior managing officer of Honda R&D Co Ltd, who is heading the F1 project.
Bench tests
"In addition to conducting simulations, we have moved onto the next stage where we conduct full-fledged bench tests of the engine while connecting the turbocharger and energy recovery systems. In the meantime, our racing operation base in Milton Keynes, United Kingdom, has become fully operational.
"At this time, we are unveiling an image of our power unit that is under development. The whole team is concentrating on this development, getting ready for the forthcoming start of F1 participation in six months."
