After watching that vid for a couple of times, I'm starting to get used to the look of the 2009 car after seeing it in action. It looks far better when it is in full flight
Really?

It is going to take a lot more time for me.

I actually like the 2009 as much as the 2008. It didn't even have to grow on me.

Assuming they 'got it right' and there is more passing and more exciting racing... I don't care if they 'look' like F1 cars from 1992.

I wonder who would have the cash? I had heard a rumor at one point that billionaire Carlos Slim Hel? of Mexico might purchase the Honda team, but nothing has materialized.

I think that rumor turned out to be a rumor on top of a rumor. Last I heard/read is Honda extended their deadline so they are still for sale technically. Maybe they will be a late entry.
