Did anyone else notice that this year , the Jordan's aren't called Jordan
Honda's, their not called Jordan Mugen Honda's, their called Jordan
Mugen's.

This says to me that Honda are trying to disassociate themselves Jordan
Mugen Honda which makes me think that they are planning to run their own
engine and the Mugen engine.

Any Idea's?

On the graphics it says "JORDAN MUGEN Hon." I think. Interesting, though.

Honda were somewhat pissed off at last years Jordan performace (according to
the recent documentary) so a big loss of face there.

Also, if I'm not mistaken, Jordan won't have Honda engines after this season,
so maybe it's a wind-down.

Cheers,
Roy

I've just reviewed my tape of that documentary, and there is NOTHING in it
to suggest that Honda were in any way pissed off with Jordan. Quite the
contrary, actually.

And maybe this is a wind-up, eh? ;-)

They'll change it back when Jordan starts winning. :-)

But yeah, I think they're trying to disassociate themselves from Jordan
because of their plans to join with their own team.

`Mugen Hm,' if I didn't misread (or misremember). We were spec­
ulating what that was supposed to mean -- Honda Motors or some­
thing?

It's short for "Hmmmmmmmm" . It's the noise the Honda board make while
deciding whether or not to throw Jordan to the lions.
