They had one of the best looking cars back in the Lucky Strike days, now this earth crap.

Best looking on the grid still probably goes to McLaren




Ferrari's always look pretty good also.



Williams looks good also

Comes out tomorrow, I'm guessing it will look about the same. I'm a huge Renault fan, I love the old Mild Seven livery

Honda officially unveil the RA108
Tuesday 29th January 2008

Honda officially unveiled the RA108 at their Brackley headquarters today, admitting they can't afford another season like last year.


The launch followed an initial shakedown period with the all-new RA108 in Valencia last week, in which the team's race driver line-up of Rubens Barrichello and Jenson Button put evaluation mileage on the car in preparation for the start of its pre-season testing programme later this week.


The role of unveiling the RA108 in the team's 2008 livery today was assigned to test driver Alex Wurz. At the wheel of the car for the very first time, Wurz drove the RA108 through the pitlane themed auditorium in front of the assembled crowd of 300 international media and guests.


Honda laid out its plans for 2008 and the longer-term, reaffirming its commitment to the sport and underlining the determination of a revitalised team to realise its ambitions.


"Following a year where we failed to live up to our own expectations, the team has made a number of key appointments in the second half of 2007 to strengthen our existing resource as well as bringing on board new knowledge and different experience," said chief executive Nick Fry.


"In particular, the arrival of Ross (Brawn) in the position of Team Principal has brought new impetus and confidence to the whole organisation. This time last year saw the beginning of a downward curve for us and there is a determined sense that this year we are back on track.


"We have done everything possible to honestly address the issues, which we have to view as valuable experiences which have helped to put us in better shape for this year and for the years ahead. Every area, from technical and aerodynamics to marketing, has been strengthened with world class resource. The disappointments of 2007 power our desire to do well in 2008.


"I am very pleased for our whole team that their hard work has resulted in the RA108 meeting all its design targets on paper. We now need to work hard between now and Melbourne to make sure that those translate into good track performance and to discover whether these targets are sufficiently high compared with the achievements of our competitors.

I think Brawn can help a lot, but its still going to be a struggle for Honda. They are competeing now to be a #4 team and best. I don't see them higher then that.

If anyone has been paying attention to the time sheets during winter practice Honda is bringing up the rear. And they are down a full 2 seconds over the front runners. It's truly pathetic. NO excuses as no other teams have fallen like Honda have. Hell even Torro Rosso led the time sheets one day.

It's going to be a fucking horrible season again if your a Honda F1 fan.

The new car was being tested before it was officially launched.

To me the old school BAR honda paint scheme was the best. It all went downhill from there.
