I’m wondering if Honda has any comment to make after this first race. I haven’t seen any article from anyone asking the question; would they have done the same thing if hey knew that this is a 100% winning car?
They must be scratching there heads and asking whos idea was to get out at this point. As I always was a Honda fan it does annoy me. Well that was it. But I’m happy for JB, RB, Brawn and the whole crew, so fro Brawn GP :)

I guess its even more gutting for them as they are still helping out financially (rumor has it).

After the cars they ad the last couple of years as well.

I bet there are a few people in Honda head office having second thoughts now.

They can't even advertise their name anywhere on the car because it now uses a Merc engine. How sad is that!! :(

You gotta remember a large part of the win was down to the engine. Honda's was reportedly to be rather slow last year (I think some people have said 40hp) - which if you think about it is essentially a KERS boost this year. Things might have been a whole lot different if Honda stayed around

Personally I love the idea that after leaving their ex-cars are winners.

They probably thought it was an impossible dream.

It's a good thing to wonder, but what about Alonso, too? I lost track of all the rumours, but wasn't it a possibility that he was going to sign for Honda at some point?

marca's version is that Honda quit because Alonso said no to them :laugh:

Honda are happy to not be spending half a billion per year in these difficult financial times.

I think that the Merc engines are part of the advantage which Brawn GP enjoys.
