F1 pre season testing is in its second week and so far in five days of testing McClaren/Honda have changed at least six engines, five last week and one today.
This a very poor show on behalf of the team and presumably if you have an engine change it is down to Honda the engine manufacturer.
Of the rest of the teams Mercedes are looking very strong again with Bottas going well but Mercedes are being pressed hard by Ferrari and Red Bull. Today Williams looked promising.
The experts are saying that the racing spectacle will not be improved this year as the improved aerodynamics and increased down force will mean faster cornering speeds but shorter braking distances, which bodes ill for overtaking opportunities.
I guess that if this is true more spectators /followers will vote with their feet.
