End Honda
Nick Fry, the Chief Executive Officer and Team Principal of the Formula One constructor of Honda, has promised Honda's RA107 will be on a par with the Ferraris and McLarens before the end of this season.
Honda entered this year's Championship with a great deal of promise following on from Jenson Button's breakthrough victory in Hungarian GP of the last season. The Brackley squad, however, has failed to live up to the build up.
Eight races were struggled by the team to even score their first point of the Championship - came courtesy of Button's eighth placed finish in the French GP in Sunday.
Nonetheless, the 50-year old British CEO believes that point is just the beginning of large things to come for Honda. The boss even went as far as to guarantee that Honda's RA107 will be competing with the Ferraris and McLarens before this season is over.
Fry said when they realized at the start of the year the car was not what they wanted at all, so they have had to make a lot of revisions in a very short span of time. He explains they have had to take a few risks by doing things which they thought were right, but without that much knowledge behind it.
Now, the team is back on more of a level-playing field and they hope to move forward from here because they believe, as the saying goes “one swallow doesn't make a summer”, one point does not make for them either. Fry continued that they are obviously still a long, long way off beating a Ferrari or a McLaren, which is clearly where they want to be by the end of the season, and certainly going into next year.
But he begs people should not always expect them to go from one point to the front of the grid immediately because that is totally not possible.
The team principal was also full of praise for Button following his first point-scoring result of the season. He acknowledges the fact that he admires Jenson’s performance as different races passes by. Fry said it is relatively easy to be optimistic when you have a good car and you are doing well, but Jenson really has matured with his professionalism and fighting spirit. Fry added Jenson tries every bit as hard in fighting for 12th place on the grid as he does for second or third. He further said that he have known Jason for years and knows that the racer has been better than the year before every year.
The Honda boss added also said that he does not see any reason why Jenson cannot be competing with Lewis if they give Jenson the equipment.
Honda Racing
Aside from building quality car parts such as Honda Accord parts, Japan’s second largest automaker is also into racing.
Honda entered Formula One as a constructor for the first time in the 1964 season at the German Grand Prix with Ronnie Bucknum at the wheel.
