Hope that Honda engine in the Indy Car is MUCH better than the one in the F1... Alonso's talent is being wasted in the Mclaren F1...

I think the gimmick is cool but the reality is this never happens if McLaren F1 isn't just incomprehensibly terrible. I do give them credit for working this out though, because it's just a total waste to have him toil trying to get mid-pack race after race until the car blows up.

I'm hoping that Button will replace him at Monaco. We're crossing that race off our bucket list next month, looking forward to McLaren's usually awesome hospitality.
