Maybe, but if they are starting where others were last season they will be lucky not to come last (no Caterham or marussia).

Alonso's just completed a 7 (yes SEVEN!) lap run...


Another potential disadvantage for the Honda PU vs last year's start-ups is that it's only in the one car during pre-season testing. Any McLaren installation/packaging issues and Honda don't get any mileage. Whereas last year the new PUs were in 3 or 4 cars on test days (eg. Renault got plenty miles in the Caterham transit van while Red Bull sorted their issues) and 6 or 8 during GP weekends.
