After an action-packed week and a dramatic race at the Canadian Grand Prix in Montreal, the Honda Racing F1 Team now heads to North America for the next round of the 2007 FIA Formula One World Championship at the legendary Indianapolis Motor Speedway.

Built in 1908, the IMS is the oldest motor racing circuit still in use today. The original surface was made up of over three million bricks giving the venue the nickname of ‘The Brickyard’. Indy has played host to Formula One since 2000 following the construction of a brand new infield course.

Coming so soon in the wake of Montreal, Shuhei Nakamoto, Senior Technical Director at the Honda Racing F1 Team, is hoping Indy will see a swift reversal of fortune for both Rubens Barrichello and Jenson Button. "After a frustrating race in Canada, we are looking forward to Indianapolis which presents a different set-up challenge with its mix of high speed sections and twisting infield,” said Nakamoto. “The circuit also offers good overtaking opportunities. We will be pushing as hard as possible to achieve a better result."
