My thoughts is that while it could happen at any moment, I have to wonder if Honda got as much in the way of extra allowances as they can expect when they negotiated for and received extra tokens much earlier on.

If the deal for the Enstone team and Renaul falls apart and Renault leaves the sport totally AND Honda is still lost in the woods, then I can imagine there being pressure on F1 in general to help prop up Honda to both prevent them from pulling the plug as well as ensure some diversity within F1 from the point of engine supply beyond just Mercedes and Ferrari.
