All at Aston Martin Aramco Formula One Team send our congratulations to our Technical Partner Honda, as they reach the milestone of 500 Formula One races at this weekend's United States Grand Prix.
Aston Martin Aramco's Technical Partner Honda reaches milestone of 500 Formula One races
Honda's F1 journey began at the 1964 German Grand Prix. Over the decades, the Japanese marque has participated in the sport in various capacities, including as a full factory team, developing both chassis and engines, as an engine supplier, and as a power unit manufacturer.
To mark the occasion, Lance and Fernando's AMR26 Formula One cars will take to the Circuit of the Americas carrying a special Honda500 logo. Honda's race engineers, who work alongside our team trackside, will also wear special uniforms featuring the same logo.
And on Friday morning, our team and Honda personnel will gather in the pit lane for a commemorative photo, including Lance, Fernando, Lawrence Stroll and Adrian Newey.
Speaking about the landmark, Koji Watanabe, President of Honda Racing Corporation, said:
"Since Honda first entered F1 in 1964, the company has experienced countless challenges, setbacks and moments of triumph on the world's highest stage of motorsport. I am delighted that Honda has now reached the significant milestone of 500 races.
"I would like to express my heartfelt gratitude to fans around the world who have supported Honda's challenges and cheered the company on through every high and low, to all the partners and drivers who have competed alongside Honda over the years, and to Aston Martin Aramco Formula One Team, with whom Honda is now united in taking on a new challenge.
"With a deep sense of pride in the history and achievements represented by these 500 races, Honda and HRC will continue to take on the challenge of F1, striving to bring dreams and excitement to fans around the world."
