Honda F1 technical director Toyoharu Tanabe said the engine manufacturer’s first victory since returning to F1 four years ago felt “like a new beginning” for them.
It also ended Honda’s wait for the first victory for its engines since Jenson Button’s triumph at the Hungaroring for the Honda works team in 2006.
“Thanks to the efforts of all the Honda F1 staff in Japan and the UK, who worked tirelessly on our PU development, we finally made it,” said Toyoharu Tanabe.
Toyoharu Tanabe: “Thanks of course to Max for a great drive and to Aston Martin Red Bull Racing for providing him with a fantastic car.”
