Honda engine failures raise concerns

Quote:

Losing four engines in a month would be a troubling trend for any manufacturer. Blowing four motors in six days, as Honda has experienced at Indianapolis, could bring the worrying to an all-new level.

I hope Alonso doesn't suffer the same fate at Indy with Honda engines as he has been in F1. IIRC, there were 4 Honda engine failures at the LBGP in April?
