I don't think what I say below is contrary to what I said just a handful of posts above. I believe points matter for STR, but at the same time I have read that Honda has been given permission to release upgrades as they see fit. So I think both scenarios are true. STR wants to score points, but the development program for the Honda PU is also important. Those two priorities compete with each other. STR also appears to have issues with it's chassis and inconsistent (or poor) performance from their drivers (mostly Hartley)
