Ouch, it seems like Honda is still nursing a grudge to this day. They vetoed Alonso running with Andretti in 2020.

Interesting thought, IF Andretti was considering a car for Alonso and had everything lined up until Honda Japan said no, do they have the car available? There's a certain Honda Canada driver without a ride and with some sponsor money out there. It could solve 2 problems BUT what does his contact say about that? He supposedly gets paid if he doesn't run, if he runs how much will it cost him? Hopefully no penalty just not getting that SPAM paycheck. Most drivers would pay to drive over sit and get paid.
