WTF! So HRC thinks it is now time to give Hayden his first championship???
Lets see if this is just more Bull coming out of Honda. Or are they the scum bags we thought they were?

You have to click the last artical, "Honda take seventeenth....."

Wow, the wording of that just sounds bad.. It's like they come out and say that the individual title was not at all in their concerns.. Well, until now, with two friggin races left...

That's what I got out of it. In addition, it sounds as if Honda was holding out a carrot until the constructors was in hand. Now they will allow Hayden his personal victories. Maybe it was a bad translation? I guess we will find out in the next two races. It gets more bizzar all the time.

Ah...I don't think it reads bad.

It's never been a secret that the constructor's title was more important to the manufacturers than the rider's title...

I wouldn't read too much into that. Sounds like typical PR-speak to me.

Re: Honda wins constructors championship. Now HRC will give NH his first Championship?WTF

I agree with the comments made by LTL and others. The Mfg title is more important to Honda than the Individual Riders title. In years past, they came together because Rossi just dominated and the support Honda's placed well each race.

Rossi left to prove that he was better then the bike and took the titles to Yamaha despite the numbers Honda put up. So hey, why not at this point help Nicky out. They got what they wanted now maybe Nicky can't get what he wants....

I don't understand how HRC's desire to win the constructor's championship has prevented Nicky, or anyone from winning.
