Honda rejects Fernando Alonso's turbo claims at Singapore GP

Ahead of the Singapore Grand Prix, Aston Martin changed components of both cars, meaning Fernando Alonso and Lance Stroll started from the pit lane. When speaking to AS , Alonso revealed that his turbo from Saturday at the Grand Prix had broken, so he was forced to make the change he made under Parc Fermé conditions. Alonso said, “Yesterday’s turbo was broken and had to be replaced, no matter what.” However, when this was brought to Chief Engineer Shintaro Orihara, he contradicted Alonso’s claims, insisting that the turbo was not broken and that the change was made at Alonso’s request.
