Firstly, how can a copy of a MAT design also be 100% Honda designed?

Secondly, if the 2018 design is a copy of the MAT design, how have Honda got around the associated IP rights of a MAT design?

Thirdly, the indication that Honda are using components from MAT comes from a Honda Press Release in Jan 2018 that said: 'Until last year, Honda was relying on McLaren technically quite a bit. We were receiving components supplies in Europe through McLaren. Battery pack (ES) was McLaren's, and it was supposed that we were going to do the battery by ourselves sometime later. There are complications in law regarding battery about air transportation and customs. That's why battery pack had to be done at Milton Keynes. So we have to expand internal production otherwise we cannot continue. We must sort these out urgently.' - are you able to confirm that Honda have expanded this internal production?
How dare you question one of the big hitters in F1! Can’t you see he’s obviously in the inner sanctum of F1? His name says it all! I demand a refund!
