Default Anyone into F1?

I just found this article about maybe keeping Honda in F1 if someone buys the team. Maybe well be seeing Honda in F1 next year after all.

I love F1 and Ferrari, but it's nice to have others in there as well.

Interesting. I wonder what they'll call the team then...Slim Embratel Ferrari F1...the SE09 chassis lol.

Good find, thanks. Can't wait until March! Imagine, the name Senna back in F1. Awesome.

I prefer races like lemans. Seeing dozens of cars that all look exactly the same is no better then nascar IMHO

F1 rules, I used to watch it when I was a kid until 95 when Senna died and Shumacher started winning, started watching again 3 years ago, Shumacher is gone, and racing is a lot more interesting now. Last 2 years been the best, 1st and 3 place were 2 points apart, it doesn't get any better than that.

I like F1 and the WRC, but WRC isn't on TV much. I think the new rules should make F1 better, it needs more passing. Nascar really just bores me, the drivers are amazing, on average probably better than F1, but the cars suck and really are kind of ugly. I think I like F1 because of the engineering involved. I think it is like 87 days until the season starts.

I really enjoy the technical aspects of it.. but the racing is great too. Im really looking forward to this next season.. honestly with or without Honda it will still be great.

Slim did buy Honda F1 today for $1. They may go with Ferrari power, but I don't think Ferrari has figured out KERS, so I don't expect them to be competetive at all. IT looks like a boring McLaren year.
