Great find!
It looked interesting the first 5 seconds or so... then it gets overwhelming, like the BMW art cars. |

The latest photo in the gallery was #4703. Replacing the number with 4704 (the thumbnail of which was hidden), shows this pic.

What do you mean replace it? I've heard other people talking about replacing numbers and getting a different picture, but I've never understood it. |

funny, myearthdream.com doesn't exist.
Tell a man there are 300 million stars in the universe and he'll believe you. Tell him a bench has wet paint on it and he'll have to touch to be sure. |

Wow Honda weren't wrong saying that it's something new. Not quite sure what I think about this one yet...

But somebody owns the name, i checked i bet it goes live when the livery goes live. I bet thats a bugger to paint on. just think as people drive past the can say "i can see my house from here"  |

I like the livery, but I think Honda risk hypocrisy if they dont demonstrate that the 107 is somehow greener than the other teams. If they don't, I don't really see the point.

With speculation that Google Earth might be the sponsor. |

Yeah, if Honda thinks they are running a 'green' car then they are awfully wrong. They end up wasting so much energy and materials to go racing that it is really a joke. Maybe if they had an electric vehicle or some kind of regen braking then you could brag about 'green' technology, but as the car stands right now it is far from 'green'.

There are plenty of other superficial reasons why Google Earth sponsorship is good for honda. They are both Internationally known, and I am willing to bet that aspect will be the one that is pushed during the official presentation of the sponsor. Anyways, no matter how superficial the relationship between the said sponsor and the team may be, it is still better than being sponsored by a cigarette brand.
