Hopefully it's true. It would be great to see Button in a good car. But how many seasons will it take to field a winning car? They don't have much to build on.

couldnt agree more.
BUT Ross did say before he will never leave Ferrari but who knows maybe honda offers him LOTS of money.

by the way.. Rumours are saying Honda is increasing its workforce by as much as 20% so i reckon Honda will bounce back to the front of the grid next year (hopefully) :roll:

Here's the original

Telegraph article - link. This would explain Jense's fighting talk from the recent days, being all pumped up and rearing to go from hearing the exciting news at the end of last week. Some nosy reporters had already noted (earlier in October I guess) that Brawn seemed to be moving out from his house in Italy, so it was pretty much just a question about where he was going to go. And of course there was still the slight possibility that it was just an intricate Ferrari ploy. This seems pretty solid, though, so Honda it is. Brawn's move will also affect the driver market, it'll be interesting to see for how long Barrichello will continue ... the two know each other very well and if Rubens is still up to it, could prove difficult adversaries for Ferrari, too.

Number Two - Probably 3 seasons, but all 3 would be hopeful, showing biulding success. Next year Honda will use what ever they have new for 08 and Brawn would make improvements. The second year would be a Brawn car, some good podiums, perhaps a win or two, pull even to BMW. The third season could be a championship year. My opinion?....Yes ,yes , optimism reigns. Although Williams and BMW are favourite teams; Ive had an appriciate since the Honda RA272...1.5liters, transverse v12 took their first win in 1965 at Mexico City.

freedom_honda-" Never leave Ferrari."- If I had to number the times I've heard "I love my wife" or from the tender gender " My husband and I are life long partners" only to see them on seperate off ramps 6 months later. :wink:

checkerd- I think in one of your posts a few months ago you had mentioned something about a moving van out front :wink:
