Honda F1 Racing
Honda F1 Racing - This was the Japanese racing team challenging Toyota.... but:
The team continued until the end of the 2008 season, when Honda exited the sport, unwilling to continue the Brackley-based team's $300 million budget and staff of 700 during an extended period of global economic crisis.
The team was eventually saved by a management buy-out led by Honda Racing team principal Ross Brawn. On 25 February 2009, the team's attorney registered the domains 'brawnracing.com' and 'brawnracing.co.uk', hinting at the possibility that the team might race under a new name.
Rubens Barrichello was confirmed as Jenson Button's teammate for the 2009 season on 2 March.
On 6 March 2009, Honda Motor Company announced that the Formula One team had been sold to Ross Brawn and formed a new team, Brawn GP.
