| Munoz in one of the 'lemon' Wirth Hondas |
The Honda IndyCar teams are praying for rain for tomorrow's Grand Prix of Indianapolis, as a way to equalize things a bit. The Wirth designed road course aero kit is a complete failure and an embarrassment for Honda who are getting their lunch eaten by Chevy teams.
In IndyCar knockout qualifying round 3 for the fastest 12 cars just ended with the top-6 advancing to the final round. There is only one Honda car in the top 12 and they are way down in 11th position. Most people are surprised Honda has not fired them already.
