I am sick of seeing it and it seems to be giving everyone the hump at Honda.

Its not making any difference to the enviroment infact no one in the media even mentions what the hell its all about.

The honda F1 car paint job is completly letting down the whole Honda brand.

for the sanity of Button and Barrichello will you please paint it BLACK.

The livery is driving the team mental? :rotflmao: Stop talking rubbish.

I rather like the livery and hope that other teams decide to become as adventurous as STR and Honda have been with theirs.

I'd think the lack of performance from the thing is letting Honda down far more than the colours it's painted.

Right now if the team could find a way of getting any kind of speed from that car, I'd guess Button and Barrichello wouldn't care if it was painted pink....

I think the paint job is the least of their worries at the moment.

Btw, Honda's livery is my second favourite after Renault's. :p : :)

After the car launch in a room I feared that the Honda's livery might not look good at racing track (like a "blurr"), but in reality it looks equally nice there as well.

I like the Honda paint job, it makes them look far more distinctive than they would be in red and white like Super Aguri and Toyota.

I wouldnt say I really like the paint job but its quite refreshing to see a racing car without the sponsors stickers plastered all over it.

personally i really like it, at least it differs from the red and white parade, and i don't think the drivers would care what its like as long as the car was quick, and that cannot be blamed on the colour or marketing strategy. its down to the engineers, and from what we've seen at barcelona they are making decent progress, they have jumped into the thick of the midfield battle and there is still a long way to go, but at least they are moving in the right direction

Basically, what he said :) [I liked it more to start with than he did].

Funny seeing Sato ahead of Button in the points :)

Why does the thought of yellow ice cream worry me?




And by the way, I bet if you took a magnifying glass to it and looked in the right place... you could probably see my house... :p :

One question that's been bothering me - Are the cars painted with environmentally friendly paint (no toxic solvents, etc.)? If not, it's kind of hypocritical, isn't it?

The fact that it's a fuel-burning environmental incentive makes it hypocritical!

Why not repaint it red with white or black, chrome & red and see if that makes it any faster??

True..the new honda livery looks rubbish, and I always loved the white & red car though...this car hasnt developed, look at the super-aguri's are beating them..what a shame?

The worst thing is you can't really tell what it is until it's quite close. In the distance it just looks a mess.

They should paint the car completely black and put a large picture of the planet on the engine cover. Then they should put environmental messages on the sidepods and change the message each race. That way people will at least check to see what's written on the Honda each race and the topic may get discussed. As it is, Honda's "green" meassage has been largely forgotten.
