I didn't say HPD was testing the 2015 F1 engine!HPD will be helping with the testing and development of the ERS,Turbo Design and Cooling(the three biggest challenges of the new F1 Engine) to help and better understand the tech.The engine is the easiest part(don't need a lot of testing) of the new F1 Power-Unit.HPD will be using the HR22t to test the new tech and that will help HondaF1 Racing.
And if more manufactures join P1,Honda will follow but first they are putting all their might to the F1 Power-Unit and McLaren.
