Jonathan Noble: Off Line
"We beat Super Aguri – so that's a step forward"
Jenson Button is not normally your glass-half-empty type of guy, but even he was struggling in Malaysia to put a positive spin on the mess that Honda Racing has found itself in.
With the team all but admitting that the RA107 is a write-off, as work continues in Brackley on a car that will be new in all-but-name for the Canadian Grand Prix, Button's current modus operandi is very much 'like it, lump it and just hope it gets better for the future'. Hungary 2006 now seems a long, long time ago.
