    There is a chance that Honda will actually quit F1 for their lack of success.

    Thanks dude. I sure hope too this ain't gonna happen.

    I read about this actually in the May edition of BusinessF1 mag and they quoted an insider who stated that Honda is looking at this option as well.

    What they really ought to do is throw away the current chassis and adapt their car from last year to today's standards (basically get a couple of Super Aguris on the road).

    I would much rather have JB in the Ferrari than Massa.

    I'm thinking this as well. Jenson has the skills I think, although he's still far behind alonso or raikonnen.

    I wouldn't say he's far behind. Anyone in F1 isn't "far" behind another F1 driver, unless we're comparing Albers to Alonso. I'd say that Jenson is probably only a step or two behind Kimi and Fernando. Who knows, he might blossom with a car like the Ferrari or Mclaren.

    I think the Hamilton factor is probably getting to him as well .. not being Englands No1 driver

    Rubens Barrichello has announced that he will remain with the Honda team for a third season alongside Jenson Button, and is certain 2008 will bring better results.

    Of this I am glad :)

    Good decision. Nick Fry screwed the 07 car by getting it all wrong in the wind tunnel. I'm sure they won't make that mistake a second time.
