Welcome my friend!

A schumi fan from my home city :D

We already have a thread about this somewhere down the page,

dome corporation has denied that they are setting up the team, so its now speculated it will be a run by Aguri Suzuki's corporation.

Not enough details yet, although if this team does eventuate, we definitely know Honda will supply the engines and Sato will be one of the drivers.

Speculation has it that Sauber's head of R&D Jacky Eackelhart is on the way to this Honda 'b' team, Davidson could be Sato's teammate, that the chassis will be heavily based on the BAR 007, and Trevor Carlin may run the team. All this is speculation, but I'm quite excited about it to be honest as the thought of having a close to full grid is good for the sport.

'tis exciting indeed, though if what you say is correct about Trevor, I wouldn't be surprised if NK gets a drive. India is also a huge market for Honda which might add in his favour

Didn't Narain say he was close to agreeing terms with a team for a testing deal? Whilst Narain is a slight chance, I think Davidson will get the drive alongside Sato as I think Honda owe Davidson a fair bit.

Yes, but as I said, India is a big emerging market for Honda, don't see AD selling many motorbikes or cars for Honda in India. Could be that AD gets the drive, who knows, we surely won't until the lights go out next year for Melbourne, or Bahrain or wherever the season begins

as u urself in one of ur posts said about narain's redbull rumours honda has 101 ways to sell its products .if it launches a team it will fill its seats on merit.

No, It would be TS and AD, NK is good for Indian merchendising, but remember that BAR and Honda blocked AD trying out for NH's Williams seat at the beginning of the season, a drive he was rumoured to be favorite for. If he was dumped out of F1 now, it would not be fair, the poor guy has earned his chance. I also think Japanese money is going to be more important to the new team rather than Indian markets. Remember this may or may not be a 'b' team. If it was for marketing, I would say NK had more chance driving for 'Honda F1'. And this is not going to happen!

no its a B team, and they are taking Sato. no merit needed, I think it is a good prospect for NK, with Carlin there.

Senna has a chance of getting his dream team then :eusa_think: for bashing for course :P

"Well, it's Stewie, but... you can call me "cookie" if you like. Yes, I also answer to "Artemis," "Agent Buckwald" and "Snake." Yes, I rather like "Snake." "Snake Griffin."

I think you should pick me for The Real World because I always speak my mind, um, not everyone likes that, and I'm not afraid to "go there".

I have heard rumors its a british based team, possibly Lotus? or Lola? They have had plenty of racing experience in other categories apparently.
