"McLaren and Alonso will demand it."

Honda don't give 2c want little McLaren and Alonso want. It's all about if it's worth it for them. If they can't close the gap in 2016 I think it's allover. My guess is that there is one or maybe two executives who has pushed for this and need to convince the board continously that it's worth it, I don't think they are impressed so far... connected or not it will cast a shadow on the NSX which is also a V6 FI hybrid. I for sure isn't eager to buy one seeing what Frankenstein engine they have created here in F1. On the other hand if the Honda engine had kicked ass from start I would be much more excited over the NSX. And this is why volume car companies enters F1, to spice up their image. Ferrari is synonymous with F1, they have no choice and I hope they pull their socks up, fast.
