Is anyone else looking forward to all the reports of Harry Carry coming
from Honda premises all throughout Japan when Brawn - Mercedes take a one
two here in Aus tomorrow? How about nation wide Harry Carry when they win
the championship? I think they deserve it too - trying to save face by
trying to hide the fact that they gave up on winning an F1 title behind the
economic downturn! LOL.

Bernie will probably keep the focus off that and on himself though - I
wonder what that mastermind is cooking up as I type? I must take a look
through a MAD magazine next time I'm in a news agent to see how many pages I
can find Bernie, George W and Osama
on........................................

It's harakiri or seppuku, but, yeah, the decision to quit F1 after going
through all that trouble and dissapointment, just when you've finally
managed to hire someone who can make it happen, has got to rank pretty
highly on the "stupidest corporate descision ever"-list.

I think it's important to remember that we have only passed through the first wave
of this financial crisis. Sadly there is more to come, especially for car makers at
a time when cars are so reliable. Getting a new model every few years might be nice,
but it's not necessary.

Honda may well be proved to be wiser than they've been given credit for.

Excuse my question (I'm german, no native english speaker): What means Harry
Carry? Wikipedia told me from an former radio moderator, who moderated
football.

Harakiri is the proper word, and Harry Carry was a famous baseball announcer
for the Chicago Cubs......:-)

Well, here's another alternative from Urban Dictionary -
http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=harry%20carry

And after the Brawn one two I think there is no doubt that they have the
best chassis in F1 - I believe the results would have been the same if a
Honda engine was bolted into it. I'd love to be a fly on the wall in some of
the Honda meetings this morning! :)

Anyway, good luck to Mercedes - 1 2 3.
