Orihara: When I was in junior high school, I watched F1 on TV and something that stood out were the McLarens with their Honda-powered cars. From that moment onwards, I knew that I wanted to join Honda and be a part of this incredible sport. I started there in 2003 and, for the first 10 years, I worked on road-going projects. Despite this, my love and passion for F1 didn’t fade and the hard work paid off. In 2013, I transferred to the racing side of the business and reached my dreams. During this time, I could learn the tricks of F1 engineering and live some intense moments of adversity but ultimately some glorious memories and wonderful times. I can confidently say that Honda and F1 are a part of my life.
