"Veni, Vidi, Vici" We Hate to Lose

The longest episode covers Honda’s expansion from a motorcycle manufactruer to a carmaker. It begins with a somewhat abridged version of Soihciro Honda’s fight with the Ministry of International Trade and Industry, which wanted to limit the number of auto companies in Japan. Honda, who had not yet established itself as a carmaker, was in danger of being forbidden from making cars, leading Old Man Honda to take one of his many battles with MITI. Little time is spent on Honda’s first cars, the S-series roadster and T-series truck, instead delving into their epic quest to take the highest echelons of motorsport in the world, Formula One.
