Last year or 2 years ago, Honda ran the "Earth Dream" theme, and they don't want to have any sponsors. Fast forward to the end of 2008, they were basically corporate-funded and it's part of why they failed. So when Brawn took over, they were without sponsor while the 2009 bills have already been paid for by Honda.
Yup, those are brake coolers that Ferrari started putting onto their car 2-3 years ago... then Renault followed suit and everyone else also started to use it.
Anyone sees the resemblance of Brawn's car and early 2000s Ferrari? haha
Ferrari should have let Brawn return; Massa would have been WDC and Ferrari wouldn't be in the shithole they're in right now. That's what they get for trying to italianizing the team again instead of reaching out for talents.
