People seem to think it is a honda painted with the world but when I look at it I mostly see just Europe...oh yah I forgot Europe is the world :lol:

Personally I don't know if I like it all that much...and I question the sanity of using the globe on an "F1 race car" as a way to try to present your company as eco friendly...after all F1 is about as enviro friendly a Chinese coal fired generating station.

Don't get me wrong here, I really do like F1 but c'mon lets not get loopy this ain't no eco challenge!

I love it, whever you americans have pictures on the world, America is always in the middle with asia on the left and europe on the right. Which is wrong since europe is the centre if your going on the time differences, and Britain is in fact the centre, London and more specifically Grenich (or however it spelt). Honda have actually don it properly, which is very nice indeed! And anyway, Europe on a whole is more important than America when it comes to F1 since it has the most F1 races. so there :P

The only objection i have to the American map is that it cuts entire continents in half for the make to work which makes it very confusing. The European map is better as where it cuts is mostly ocean which isnt nearly as bad.

I was trying to agree with you yesterday - the "something behind it" was the fact the picture was leaked from Honda. That's why it had that URL on the rear wing - they knew about it because it was their livery! :blink:

The something was established when they started threatening legal action to those that leaked it, no company would bother with that if it wasn't their intended livery. The URL will be up tomorrow. ^_^

Just to be clear I am not American. And Yes F1 is very Euro-centric!
I still think it is questionable to use an F1 car try to paint greener image for Honda!

WTF are you guys talking about, I've never seen an map of the globe with America in the center and have other continents cut in half...  They always have Europe in the middle.

BOT, is still looks like a fish tank or an aquarium.  I can't believe this global warming nonsense.  And F1 cares about the environment so much, they burn thousands of liters of petrol and go through who knows how much motor oil and hydraulic fluid every race weekend.  NASCAR at least switched to unleaded race fuel.
All hail the king of the run-on sentence and the 2007 WDC!

Thats the one. I just cant get used to that map as nothing is in the correct place. Uropeans discovered the world and for the most part wrote the maps so its only fair that Europe is in the middle.

Their discovery is something the American continent didn't really need as it ended in the worst genocide in history, so I wouldn't brag much about it.

There is a simpler reason for Europe to be in the center. That way all the continents can be shown without being parted in the middle. Anyways. is the first time I've ever seen a map centered in America.

While at this, why is the south in the bottom? Let's turn the world upside down! Southern hemisphere rules!

Except from the part about the ruling of the South Hemisphere (you made me remember some Mafalda joke), I agree with you.  ^_^

The version of the map with America centered is completly new for me!...

This is the version we use all the time:

So the map with america at the center is only made by europeans...
