    Ok

    Just come back from talking with a test engineer at Honda today

    Hrc , here in saitama is ok , basically all is fine even with the power cuts

    Utsunomiya ( just up north about an hour by train ) took a hit , but thats a production facility so shouldn't affect the racing

    Sounds like it's the suppliers that HRC rely on that could be the problem. A few of them took a hit and are having problems apparently.

    Not sure. It may have been the 3 Japanese factories in general. They were going on about it on the Eurosport coverage. Talking to Team Managers, such and such said blah.
