Honda Racing F1 Team is a Formula One team run by Japanese car manufacturer Honda. The team is based in Brackley, United Kingdom, and uses the facilities of former British American Racing, which Honda fully acquired in 2005. Engines are built at the Honda R&D facility in Tochigi, Japan. The Honda team is led by Nick Fry and currently has drivers Jenson Button and Rubens Barrichello. The team began by using the same predominantly white livery that Honda used in the sport during the 1960s, but has since switched to a more environmentally friendly livery. The car entry for the 2006 season was the RA106 with the RA806E V8 Honda Engine, consistent with the nomenclature from its previous two generations of F1 competition. -- Source wikipedia.org
