Seeing Taku in interviews and doing other PR stuff, he has a lot of charisma and a 'nice young man' image. Maybe this personailty trait has wooed Honda into allowing him to drive for them. I'm sure Honda didn't build the team just for him (a humorous exageration by myself in the post), but they certainly counted on him driving for them. I guess this is Honda's way of ensuring Japan remains Civic-driving F1 fanatics! While Takuma may not shine on the track, he certainly does off it.

It just proves that it's not what you do, it's who you know. I think it’s amazing that Sato, um, how should I put this… didn’t exactly shine last year… and still he gets an entire team built for him.
