New spec PU for Honda in Spa with another update late in the season perhaps? Rumor of 15 hp now and 40ish with subsequent update. That would put them level with Renault or so

drop an ebay intake w/K&N filter and add another 40 HP. Another FTD for Alonso

I hope they get a decent livery next year. I don't hate McLaren anymore. #cleanslate

I was quoted in a Forbes article by the Formula Money dude after a mini-feud on Twitter with him regarding the British GP being "lost".

You can say I'm sort of a big deal now.

Hopefully my other tweets aren't too offensive/embarrassing

He/McHonda be fucked for PU choice too. Merc and Ferrari said no. Even if Renault agrees to give them a PU would they really want it? It's not that much moar reliable or powerful than the Honda at this point and the Honda is still basically a clean slate, brand new PU. I read that Waffle used some PU updates during the Hungry test and was happy/impressed with the progress.

IMO the top teams would only consider him they lost their #1 - and that's not very likely. Ferrari and Merc are winning just fine without him and his yuge retainer. He's also got a bit of reputation for throwing his teams under the bus so there's that.
