Honda growth might benefit B.A.R.
The BAR-Honda team goes to Barcelona this week with new aerodynamic parts which the team hope will improve the performance of the promising combination. Honda is expected to put more effort than ever into the F1 program under the guidance of new president Takeo Fukui, and the company has just announced impressive new sales targets which will lift vehicle sales by 7.7% this year. If that happens the company will be building over three million vehicles a year. Honda is predicting growth both in Europe and North America, which is pretty impressive in the current economic situation.
