Taken from sky sports news:
“Red Bull chief Helmut Marko has launched a staunch defence of Honda, insisting Fernando Alonso did everything to "make the engine look bad".
Alonso lamented the Japanese engine suppliers' performance throughout McLaren's plagued three-year partnership, and is now looking forward to Renault power in 2018.
But after Honda moved across to Toro Rosso, Marko is optimistic about the Red Bull junior team's season.
"Honda is very active and has already found something," the Red Bull advisor told Auto Motor und Sport. "Maybe they manage to be on the level of Renault with the second engine.
"Honda had to compromise on the McLaren chassis specification. They could not develop freely and were pretty limited. Alonso has done everything to make the engine look bad.”
I’m really hoping that this comes good. I think as per the article above, McLaren were far to restrictive with the chassis design and wouldn’t allow Honda the room they needed
