Honda Take Control
Discussion
From next year BAR will be no longer, as the team will be 100% Honda, and named Honda Something-Or-Other (according to Autosport)
So, it is a pretty safe bet that they will win the WC in the next five years - will it be Rubens or Jenson :scratchchin:
Also, rumors of an eleventh team next year supplied with honda engines, and a certain T Sato driving.
All interesting news

autosport said:They are talking about giving sponsors billing in the team name - which is a remarkably grown up approach in these times of rising costs.
Honda also said it would rename the new team in agreement with future sponsors. "Basically it will be 100 percent Honda from 2006," Oshima said. "We will complete the buyout by the end of the year. We have a highly motivated team and we expect to be much stronger."
He added: "The name will be Honda something-or-other but we will have to talk with the sponsors before making that decision."
Mind you, they are head to head with Toyota - or should that be Panasonic Toyota Racing. Having their name first though could be seen as a bit of one-upmanship .

Chassis-Engine named normally (unless your BMW-Williams) so....er......Honda-Honda then
It's 'Ferrari' not Ferrari-Ferrari or Fiat-Ferrari
Remember, Honda was going to have its own team five years or so ago and that got canned when Harvey Postlewaite died.
I'd put Honda as the front-runner for next year.

So it could well be Honda Durex.
Not unless its powered by a rubber band in 2006.
It would be Durex Honda. the Engine manufacturer always goes second. And I always thought that even Ferrari's were written in the race prgrammes as Ferrari-Ferrari for chassis constructor and engine manufacturer.
Same as Williams-Renault (or BMW) And McLaren-Mercedes etc.
