well with Lucky Strike still as the title sponsor I doubt Honda could change the paint scheme much but hey on a separate note does anyone else think Chet uses the phrase "I just creamed myself" far too much for anyones comfort? :\

heres some uber hi-res pics of the above:







Cheers, Iain

Enjoy the full power of chetwetness TM

hopefully when the luckystrike thing ends then we can see some more traditional honda liverys




LS's Tip of the week
ESSENTIAL OILS aren't essential unless you're an engine, a gearbox or a twat

Instead of colours Show it to me colourless but give me a season results .
To stop of those faster teams you need more than this .
'Cause it was failed last year.

What red and white with Honda plastered all over it?

I've got a feeling that the car is sponsored by Lucky Strike, no idea why...

All the colours makes the cars slow excepte in case of trying to overtaking or keeping the pace, where, then it shines so high and you can't close your eyes.

yeah before they starting testing, i was thinking that they may have an all white car with some red to go with the Japanese flag colours, but Toyota have already done that sort of.

but i had hoped they'd do something different to the BAR colours, considering its meant to be a fresh start an' all.

"Honda's drivers are 'best in F1'

Honda say they have the best driver line-up in Formula One as they embark on their first season as a constructor since 1968.

Boss Nick Fry said he was "optimistic" Jenson Button and Rubens Barrichello would break a seven-year win drought for the team formerly known as BAR.

"This is the best driver line-up in our team's history. It is also the best team of drivers on the grid," Fry said.

Button also said he was "confident" of winning his first Grand Prix in 2006.

Fry said that the combination of Honda's two race drivers together with their experienced and highly-rated English test driver Anthony Davidson was better than that of any other team.


I'm confident that all the determination will be rewarded this year

"You can debate the merits of any one individual but I think our three put together is the best team," he said.

Fry said the addition of Barrichello, who has moved after six years as Michael Schumacher's number two at Ferrari, had made a big difference.

"Rubens has been exactly what we expected. He's technically very strong, he knows exactly what he wants," Fry said.

"Technically he's a big asset to the team and he's working very well with both Jenson and Anthony. His maturity and his depth of experience is going to be a huge asset to the team.

"We are pleased we've got two great drivers so we go forth optimistically. There's a great atmosphere between the two of them at the moment," Fry added.

Honda took complete control of BAR last year in an attempt to end six years of frustration as an engine supplier.

Honda racing chief Yasuhiro Wada said: "I personally cannot stand not winning for more than five years. Ideally I would like to see a win this year."

The Englishman has not won a race since his debut in 2000, but said the work Honda had done with an interim car so far in pre-season testing had encouraged him.

"We've achieved a lot in winter testing with our concept car," he said.

"I'm confident that all the determination will be rewarded this year and I've done my part by working even harder on my fitness to ensure that I'm in the best possible shape for the season ahead."

right, i've stopped rolling around on the floor now and wiped away my tears of laughter.

I think McLaren have a better line up than Honda, if not the best on the grid. I rate Rubens lower than JPM, and Kimi is clearly one of the best (if not the best) on the grid, so that combo is easily better than Rubens & JB, IMO

I thought they may have gone back to a simple livery, like they were in the 1960's, and like in the old car in the Honda "Impossible Dream" short film.

Instead, they have just used 2005's livery, or near enough damnit...

Laters,

im sorry, but i dont see ANY change from the 2005 livery.
