Looks like Ferrari and Mercedes built a fairly reliable engine. Honda instead seems to need to make some progress reliability wise.
It's crazy that Leclerc is doing so well this season and hasn't had to take a penalty despite effectively having 3 only engines. Also it's crazy what a tank the Ferrari engine has become after the failures in 2022 and Leclerc having to take an engine penalty literally by race 2 in 2023.
Leclerc's no 2 PU was taken care of after Monaco, it was reported on several media outlets and here as well. It was a minor issue that required an intervention in the factory, couldn't be solved in the garage. There's no chance any team could run on 3 PUs only, that's 33% longer life span than they are designed for
Both Leclerc and Sainz were on target to use 4 PUs and the team took their chance to give Sainz a new PU in Brasil due to poor starting position only
