johntt should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
I think Honda were on the edge of going for a factory team but then we had the recession in 2008 and the quake earlier this year put the programme back in a big way.

I'm not sure how easily they could put together an works team, after what happened with Highcroft (which was mostly out of HPD's hands) a lot of teams would be wary of tying up with Honda.

re. the following the other I was referring to Honda and Toyota. There were rumours of Honda doing Nascar Trucks a few years ago but they never came to fruition as they wanted to do sportscars.

After the performance of the ARX-01e at Sebring this year I'm 100% sure we'll see the return of Honda to LMP1.
