If McLaren-Honda is your favorite Formula One team, you’ve had virtually nothing to cheer about the last few years. But if, for some strange reason, you find pleasure in pain, the internet has got you covered.
Since Honda re-entered F1 and started supplying power units to McLaren in 2015, the former top team has managed just three top-five finishes and a grand total of zero podiums. The common thread through this stretch of mediocrity is the inability of Honda’s engines to last long enough to see checkered flags.
All of the team’s mechanical failures since 2015 have been packed into a subtly hilarious video posted to F1BOARD’s YouTube channel on Sunday.

This exercise in masochism doesn’t even include the most recent failure that technically occurred in a McLaren-Honda, and brought an end to Fernando Alonso’s largely successful bid for the Indianapolis 500.
