"Honda is defi𒉰nitely a manufacturer that has so much success in Formula 1 and in the world of motorsport, it was always a company that I respected.

"It didn't work for us at McLaren, in the years that they came to the sport, but right after that they fixed all the problems and they are cu൲rrentl✅y dominating the sport.

"I think they will have a baseline for 2026 that is already very strong, but also they have the capacity in Sakura o✃f building something really nice.

"After the experience with McLaren-Honda and IndyCar as well, we have now the opportunity to work again together. That for me is a t🌊rue pleasure.”

Alonso is c🐎onfident that Aston Martin, together with Honda, will have everything needed to be successful during F1’s next regulation cycle.

"Obviously, with the sustainable fuels that we will have in 2026, th♛is is something that 🦄I would love to experiment [with],” he said. "We have a great partner in Aramco, so I see a win-win situation.

"In 2026 we are going into th🔯e unknown for sure in terms of regula꧃tions, but if I have to choose one, my feeling is I will choose our project, our engine and our power unit.

"Firstly, because I think they are dominati🌠ng the sport, they have a very,ꦡ very strong engine on Red Bull and AlphaTauri [].

"And secondly, because with the new fuels and the new regulations, they will have all the tools available to succ𝔉eed."
