McLaren was embarrassment cause they are the running team. Blaming Honda was nothing but finger pointing trying to protect the brand. Both Honda and McLaren were so intervened in car development that it's not as simple as yelling on the radio how engine lacks power yet at the same time you cut off 15km/h of top speed to try to promote your chassis. Honda didn't just develop the engine and said here you go stuck in into your car. As a matter of fact it was vice versa, McLaren had engine design in mind and they just hired Honda to make it into reality. And it all went to crap.
Spiting on Honda publicly while they pay for your biggest salary on the grid is a ***** move. I hope Honda was smart to have a contractual obligation which would take off from his salary whenever he made public slur.
