Ross Brawn, Team Principal
“Formula One heads to the final race of the season in Sao Paulo with the Drivers’ and Constructors’ Championships going right down to the wire. The unique atmosphere of Interlagos and the involvement of a local driver in the Championship challenge should ensure a thrilling finale to the 2008 season and a real boost for the sport. Brazil is a fitting place to end the season with the Interlagos circuit providing an unusual and exciting challenge for the drivers and engineers. The location of the track in an inner city area and the passionate Brazilian fans ensure an edgy and electric atmosphere around the circuit over the race weekend. The track layout has an almost three-dimensional feel with the changes in elevation and the high-speed left-hand corners provide an extra physical challenge."
“By any measure 2008 has not been a great season for the Honda Racing F1 Team. We have been focusing our thoughts and efforts on 2009 for a considerable time and for us, Brazil will be the closing of the book on this year, allowing our full focus to turn to the longer term plans of the team and our return to competitiveness.”
