Honda are going to present there new livery on February 26. So it's not going to be the black one there using now. :cry:

The new livery will get an Eco-Earth theme. Rumours go that it will be green, with a picture of the earth on it, and with sponsorship of BP.

It are just rumours yet, but sure is that they will have a complete other livery wich is never seen before in F1. 8)

According to Autosport magazine it will likely be sponsored by Google Earth.

I've just read that the Honda's won't carry logos on their cars. There will be on the overalls. That's almost 100% sure.

That's a pretty whacky idea and I would never have imagined it to look like this... From a creative point of view, I find it lovely that some helmets and cars get more "graphical" these days... although you do almost see patchers around the globe biting into their table if you look at the picture... ;-)

Really clever marketing action though, because that car will be extremely easy to spot on track...

Another interesting thing from my point of view is that they painted it on a RA106 for this photographs or whatever more photographs might have been taken that people haven't "officially" ;-) seen yet.

The Dutch site was contacted by Honda if they would kindly remove the picture from their site or else justice actions will follow.... :(

There where "not amused" by the leaked photo... :oops:

I don't like it and not because it's a pain in the you-know-what.
It's just plain ugly. :wink:

Honda, you'll have a black car in my carset....
My revenge is sweet... :lol:

DJS, that's a very, very, very, very, very good idea. :D

Rumours now go that this will not be the final livery, it's just to give people an idea, or else said: TO SHOCK PEOPLE :shock: .

When it is going to be this one, the black car is maybe the best solution...
