It came from the swamp

This is what Honda has come up with? Tell me it's really April 1st and we'll all be laughing soon.

I was recently on a rant about how many helmet paint jobs are a blurry mess from 30 feet or farther. But this idea of a race car livery tells me someone's on drugs and I'm pretty sure it's not me.

I've heard that the new livery will be "an environmental theme", but that paint scheme is just awful. Someone at Honda is trying too hard.
With that said, I am very skeptical that Honda is going to put a car that ugly/PC on a racetrack. That's just gay!

Well, we'll know tomorrow what the livery is. Is that even the RA107? It looks like last year's car but the front wing isn't familiar. Hmph.

Getting away from the white, black, and red theme is a mistake.

Wow, that would be so embarrassing to drive a hideous car like that in public.
I think if F1 and Honda in particular are serious about "saving the planet", they should park their race cars permanently and not jet all over the globe transporting tons of heavy equipment and drivers just to provide the public with entertainment in the form of auto racing. And no, I don't believe that driving a race car with a painting of the globe on it will do more good than harm by "raising awareness" of "environmental concerns" because at this point we have all been lectured to ad nauseum about global warming, etc. Auto companies can do 99.9% as much research on clean car technology without racing. And just think of all the fossil fuels that we can save by not traveling to and attending a single Formula 1 race!

I don't care what it looks like as long as it is fast! :wink:

They said Button was third fastest around Bahrain- lets see how the performance unfolds for the season.

This is just becoming embarrassing. At least we have Button. For now.
