Button: "New car is worse than RA107"
After get his first tast of the new Honda RA108, Jenson Button has said that new car is not a big improvement respect last year one: "car doesn't have any grip, traction is very poor at the exit of the slow corners and at high speed ones it feels strange. We need to change alot of it, they said me the new parts will come at the next test, but i'm unsure that will make enough difference to be atleast at the top of the midfield".

LOL time to fire up the new civic type R and just use that.

That is what happens when you design a car by committee.

Maybe Honda should pray to Senna, so he would come down from heaven and fix it like he did with the NSX.  Then he would be a saint, right?

How could it be worse than last season's car? :-?

Reading Autosport today I think he's been misquoted. Overall it appears the car is more stable and predictable, and in the Valencia test last week, upon which the comments were based, they were using unproven aero components that hadn't been tested to the full in the wind tunnel.

well the Ferrari F2008 is going to own... period. It probably will be doing laps around thos Hondas.

My crappy BMW could do laps around the hondas
But yes the Ferrari's are looking good.
