Honda back in it?

January 18, 2008

Is Honda Racing will be competitive this year?

At the end of the 2007 season Honda wrapped up the season with only 6 points thanks to Jensen Button. But Rubens Barrichello finish the season with 0 points.

Honda then signed Ross Brawn!!! Hopefully with Brawn on-board Honda will start getting near the front of the pack. It may take to the 2009 season before we see the real improvement but saying that maybe a little improvement this year.

 Honda Racing is a good team but they are slipping back since they came second in the 2004 season team championship to Ferrari. Honda needed a very poor season to to see the warning light flashing.

Ferrari – Kimi  Raikkonen: Last years surprise champion is going to be hard to beat this season with a strong Ferrari under him.

Felipe Massa: He had a good season last year but seem to fade towards the of the season.  This year if he keeps up the winner up he could be World Champion.

Robert Kubica: Good points scorer in 07 from Kubica. Robert Kubica is a good driver and hopefully he keeps up with his fast team mate.

Renault- Fernando Alonso: So Fernando is back at his old team again after falling out with Mclaren. Lets hope Alonso get back on track, no really back track.

Nelson Piquet Junior: Nelson Piquet name is back in F1 again. Piquet Junior is a good signning by Renault. He will deafnly push Alonso this year.

Mclaren- Lewis Hamilton: What a huge surprise last year nearly becoming World Champion in his rookie season. But for this season, he is probably going  to be even Stronger.

Heikki Kovalainen: Good year for Hekki, Finishing in the points with a third place finish in Japan, Fuji International. This year he is with a competitive team- mate and should get his first win under his belt.
