Honda formula one team - yours for £1

[Green_not_greed]

As announced today, Honda are looking for a buyer for their Formula 1 team and if they can't find someone to stub up £200M per year for running costs they will stop participating

The sale price may be as little as £1.

Just wondering what folk's thoughts are on this?

A disaster for the sport? A great decision for global warming? Or don't you give a toss?

Would you pay £1 to own the team?

What a bargain, i'm off to ask my bank manager for a £19999500 top up on my over draft so we can get started, the banks are flush just now aren't they? :lol:

Do these cars take unleaded or diesel?, i'll see about setting up an account at Dunnets Garage to see if i can get a discount, should do pretty well with the Shell Drivers Club points, i just might get enough points for those crystal wine glasses i've had my eye on :D

Good on you Gizmo. Don't forget to get in contact with McConechy's to see if they would give you a discount on Tyres and Exhausts. :D

Fair enough it is the Caithness Tyre Company then, do they do Re-Treads, I am sure since a F1 Car goes through so many tyres it would be a lot cheaper to fit Re-Treads. :D

Its rumoured that given a suitable carburettor and engine tuning you can run them on chip fat, so speak to Robin.

Alternatively as they are not licensed for the UK highways you could try heating oil at around 45p/litre....
