Rubens Barrichello & Honda Closing In On Deal?
More news is filtering through this week on the future of Honda, and although little has been confirmed by the motor company itself, pace appears to be gathering towards a deal that will see the team on the grid in Melbourne.

Has It All Gone Pear-Shaped At Brackley?
When Honda first withdrew from Formula One back in early December of last year, the motoring company’s chiefs said they would do all they would to sell the squad on and keep the employees safe in their positions.

Richards Rules Out Formula One Return
Speaking at the Autosport International Show this afternoon, Dave Richards has withdrawn his interest in taking over the beleaguered Honda Formula One team.

Honda Not Keen On Bailing Out Super Aguri
The deal with the Magma Group that would have saved Super Aguri collapsed last week, and since then team owner Aguri Suzuki has been working hard on re-negotiating another, all in attempts to save his little outfit and enable them to continue racing. The squad have turned up in Barcelona ahead of this weekend’s Spanish [...]
