Honda quitting F1

[bigbubba]

I never saw this coming!

I know they are closing the Swindon factory for a few weeks in '09 but to be prepared to shut the team even if it is not sold, that's a big step.

£200m to Honda should be a drop in the ocean when you consider marketing.

If Honda were winning, then yes. But $200Million to qualify near the back of the grid and struggle to finish in the points isn't money well spent.
