Nadat Honda in 2015 terugkeerde in de sport, zal het na 2021 de deur weer achter zich dicht doen. De Japanse motorleverancier stopt in de Formule 1 en laat Red Bull en AlphaTauri gebroken achter. Alhoewel de geruchten al een tijdje in de lucht hingen, sloeg het nieuws ook in de Formule 1-wereld in als een bom. Check de reacties van verschillende individuen in de F1-wereld hieronder.

Honda leaving F1 is not a surprise. Motorsport dinosaurs will day “bah that’s cyclical there will be others coming” No they won’t! Motorsport needs to massively change its approach to stay relevant for OEMs That’s valid from Formula E to Le Mans and F1. — Lucas di Grassi (@LucasdiGrassi) October 2, 2020

Thank you, @HondaRacingF1 👏 The best moments from your return - with more to come before 2021 is out?! #F1 @redbullracing @AlphaTauriF1 pic.twitter.com/SR2jLn8AB0 — Formula 1 (@F1) October 2, 2020

Een optie voor RedBull kan zijn de Honda motor als’whitelabel’ te blijven gebruiken en er iemand voor zoeken. Zoals de Tag-Heuer deal was met de Renault motor. Mercedes is longshot om D.Mateschitz een hekel zou hebben aan het merk — Olav Mol (@Olav_Mol) October 2, 2020

That’s very bad news. F1’s 2026 new power units need to be exactly the right solution, and one that can include non OEM manufacturers so that there’s a competitive and enduring supply of exciting, lightweight and entertaining motors for drivers to thrash and fans to enjoy. https://t.co/f3pALT1EtV — Martin Brundle (@MBrundleF1) October 2, 2020

From the podium in our very first race together, to returning @HondaRacingF1 to the top step after 13 years, we've shared some incredible moments! Here's to many more in 2020 and 2021 #ChargeOn pic.twitter.com/C3wHskQPsj — Aston Martin Red Bull Racing (@redbullracing) October 2, 2020

Big IF, but what IF we had Max Verstappen driving a Mercedes-powered Red Bull in 2022? vrs Charles Leclerc in a new-improved Ferrari, plus veteran Lewis Hamilton in a Mercedes.... — Ben Hunt (@benjhunt) October 2, 2020

Puur suggestief maar in het verleden (rond 2016, voordat Honda motorpartner werd) waren er al eens geruchten dat Red Bull het zelf zou willen doen. Met Andy Cowell (de man achter het Mercedes succes) nu beschikbaar, zou dat opnieuw een optie zijn? Enig geluid gehoord @Olav_Mol ? — Ho-Pin Tung 董荷斌 (@hopintung) October 2, 2020

Big news and of course a real shame. Question now of what next for Red Bull teams. Produce their own engine? Convince a new supplier? Land Merc / Ferrari? Or, if all else fails, be forced back to Renault. https://t.co/Csf6Xfkkl2 — Will Buxton (@wbuxtonofficial) October 2, 2020

Huge news, certainly not welcome news for Red Bull. Sorry to see Honda leave F1, again, let’s hope they return one day. Where do Red Bull go now, there’s something nagging in the back of my mind, that they might not end up back with Renault. Don’t ask me why, it’s just a feeling https://t.co/G8B7lng3Pn — David Croft (@CroftyF1) October 2, 2020

Such a shame to lose Honda from F1 after 2021. I do wonder how much their tough start with McLaren & the time / money spent on those years has impacted the decision. Maybe time for F1 / RB to look at getting Andy Cowell on board to come up with a competitive independent PU? — Karun Chandhok (@karunchandhok) October 2, 2020
