Is there a limit on the number of engines used outside of races/pre-season?
I mean, 4 engines per season, but can't Honda have like 200 engines sitting on test benches and jigs simulating the stresses of running in cars running constantly at realistically varying RPMs and load levels to find failures and fix them?
If so, 1. that makes the 4 engine limit a pointless joke. 2. that means there's no excuse for Honda being shit, they should have had this shit sorted out before the engine was ever nailed into a car and there's some catastrophic failure of management and procedure somewhere...
