Toro Rosso has fired up Honda's engine for the first time ahead of the 2018 campaign.
Toro Rosso has replaced McLaren as Honda's only engine partner for the new campaign. On Wednesday it released a short video showing the first start-up, as well as race drivers Brendon Hartley and Pierre Gasly having their seat fittings.

Honda hopes its new project will mend its F1 reputation after three disastrous years with McLaren. That partnership was supposed to last 10 years, but was cut short last year after McLaren finally lost patience with the constant issues and missed upgrade deadlines.
