I've sorted the brakes like MAX his car, so no more clicking or squealing from the brakes with those new parts I got and I was generous with the anti squeal paste, now it brakes like MAX's RB 21

The company is Japanese-Belgian .

This week I got visit from 2 new Japanese and the conversation was not only about injection molding .
It was also about Honda and Max Verstappen the 4-time F1 World Champion.
And the race was this weekend in Japan at Suzuka .
Do you know Yuki Tsunoda ?
I said : Yeah . Of course . I know that and MAX is born here . Here in Belgium...
They said : What ?!?! No ?!?!

I said : Yes. Here in Belgium .
They said : Yuki can win at Suzuka ..
I said : I don't think so . That's for MAX (!)

And furthermore it was a very interesting conversation .
Next monday at the company I see them again . Then we bow as usual in the Japanese way .

Also a special mention for the rookies Antonelli, Hadjar, Bearman and Lawson:
best #11, #12, #16 and #23 lap time ever at Suzuka (1:27s time zone).

• 2025: Max Verstappen P1: 1:26:983 | Lando Norris P2: 1:26.995 = 0.012s time delta.
• 2025: Max Verstappen P1: 1:26:983 | Yuki Tsunoda P14: 1:28.000 = 1.017s time delta.
• 1989: Ayrton Senna P1: 1:38.041 | Prost P2: 1:39.771 = 1.73s time delta.

"[In 2013], Honda made an epic video tribute for one of the world’s greatest Formula 1 drivers, Ayrton Senna. What they did was recreate Senna’s qualifying lap at the ’89 Japanese GP purely by sound, which sent shivers down our spine.
You see, McLaren built the MP4/5 with a 3.5L V10 sourced from Honda way back in 1989. Although it was quick out of the box and pretty much dominated the entire ’89 Formula 1 season, it took someone as talented as Senna to drive it around Suzuka in just 1 minute 38.041 seconds – 1.7 seconds faster than the entire grid, and most importantly, his teammate Alain Prost. Sadly, we can only relive this special moment through old race footage, that is until Honda stepped in.
What these guys did was analyze Senna’s telemetry data from that historic lap, which includes accelerator position, engine speed, vehicle speed, and gear position, to reproduce the chilling sound of the MP4/5. They then lined up the entire 5.807 km Suzuka Circuit with lights and speakers so we could all relive that special day and bring back Senna to life through light and sound even for just 1 lap.
Apparently the short film named “Sound of Honda / Ayrton Senna 1989”, which documented the emotional moment, also moved the judges from the recent [2014] 61st Cannes Lions International Festival of Creativity. That’s why the awards-giving body for advertising and communications gave the film a total of 15 prizes and 8 categories, besting more than 37,000 entries this year.

Thats a pretty big compliment. When the most experienced F1 driver ever (by quite a margin) says that about you.
