I arrived at the Honda trailer before 0815. The various two seaters were already out being prepped for the rides.

Notice anything interesting?

Driver's seat. Yes, the two-seaters use sequential stick shift like the older Champ Cars/IndyCars from 2002 and earlier.

Passenger seat. Various foam pads are used to make the rear seat somewhat suitable for different sizes of passengers.

Cockpit of one of the normally aspirated two-seaters.

Various helmet sizes for various passengers.

Firestone, Cypress, and Arrow normally aspirated two-seaters.

Guests of Arrows get to ride in the Arrows car, which I think was driven by Matt Brabham.

Nickname for Cypress driver and Indy Lights driver Juan Piedrahita.

Starter for Honda turbo V6 two-seater.

Autographs inside the Honda trailer that passengers go to for signing waivers, dressing into firesuits, and leaving their stuff.

Front of trailer that is set up as a lounge for the two-seater drivers.


I don't know how to pronounce the last name of HPD president Art St. Cyr.


Waiting in line with the other "Honda" guests (contest winners at the Honda tent, or guests of Honda executives) that will be riding with Mario Andretti.

All the two-seaters have "Honda" on the engine cover. But the normally aspirated two-seaters actually have Ilmor-Chevy V8 engines!

I stopped watching around lap 38-40 and then I see online the results. I should’ve stayed home for the whole race!

I think Ocon was mentioned in the broadcast as a possibility for Williams.

Unreal how ALO was best of the rest in Singapore and has been almost dead last every race afterward. I hope McLaren can turn things around next year.
