Honda CEO Toyoharu Tanabe is very pleased after qualifying for the Grand Prix of Emilia Romagna. The four cars with a Honda power source managed to qualify in the top ten.
“It was not an easy task but we manage it. It’s nice that at their home race, Scuderia AlphaTauri had their best qualifying of the season and it was also the first time this year that all four Honda cars are in the top ten," Tanabe said in a statement from Honda.
Nice work by the mechanics
“Once again Max secured P3, despite an electrical-related issue which required a parts change in the middle of Q2. The Aston Martin Red Bull Racin mechanics and their Honda colleagues did a good job to get him out in time. Pierre’s recent good form continues and he equalled his career best qualifying performance. We are looking forward to seeing two Honda powered cars on the second row tomorrow," the Japanese boss continues.
