And if Honda told HPD no Alonso we don't like him, there would be NO Honda engines in Indy the next race event. Please read actual Indy reports, not that bs Autosport prints in complete contradiction to what HPD says. Alonso wants Honda power and Andretti tuning at Indy and he'll have it, full stop end of story
I don't know what you're going on about. It doesn't matter if he gets a Honda engine or if he doesn't. I'm just comparing the two cases because of the words of Toyota on the subject vs no whisper of Buemi running a Nissan in formula e. If it wasn't a problem with Alonso and Honda Toyota conflict there would be no words on it, but there are. Maybe he's just so popular that motorsport websites make up conflicts of interest for him for clicks.
