Honda confirm big Fernando Alonso change after 'investigation' call

Honda has decided to replace Fernando Alonso's power unit ahead of the Singapore Grand Prix following his concerns about engine issues during the weekend. Alonso, who qualified in 17th place, indicated that he experienced significant power loss, particularly at corner exits, prompting the need for an investigation and potential engine change.

After qualifying, Honda's trackside general manager Shintaro Orihara confirmed the decision to change the power unit based on Alonso's feedback. The team is focused on completing the necessary work before the race, aiming to resolve the issues Alonso faced during qualifying and the Sprint race.
