At the end of the 2021 season, Honda will complete its engine supplier activities in Formula 1, writes MTI.
Commenting on the decision, the company’s CEO, Hacsigo Takahiro, also said that they have no plans to return to the elite category of motorsport in the future.
Our decision was not influenced by the coronavirus epidemic, but by the fact that in the long term our goal is to develop zero-emission technology.
– said the CEO, adding that the possibility of developing revolutionary new technical solutions is one that “happens only once in a century.”
Honda returned to F1 in 2015 and currently supplies engines to Red Bull and Alpha Tauri.
The company will introduce its first mass-produced all-electric car, the Honda, in October and, according to a previous announcement, will use two-thirds of the plant’s capacity by 2030 to produce only vehicles with zero-emission technology.
