Manufacturers' Championship

[John]

Was gonna ask who for Production Championship but theres too many unconfirmed teams/drivers to be of any use yet so will ask about the manufacturers' instead. Only 4 to choose from so which will come out on top??

[Carl Breeze fan]

Honda - I've just got a good feeling about it

[AussieV8]

MG might be a good horse to put a pound on...:p :p

[lauz]

i really hope that it goes to someone other than vauxhall. i think that honda are going to put up a good challenge and they could win.

Honda - They were the best team at the end of last year and it seems like they will be the team to beat.

[MG-ZS EX260]

i think vaux will hve trouble with reliablity, they had many techincal/engine/transmision e.t.c problems last year, aswell as honda but they will in thei first yera, the works MG's were very reliable, but due to numbers of cars in theTourer grid i think honda will win the manufacteres, but i want to see MG win, if MG win drivers/manufactors title i will be absoulutely extatic! i would go menatal, i absolutely love the company to death!

[mark]

Well, i'll put in a vote for Vaux. Bit I'm sure it's gonna be close though! ;)

[Ann]

I was impressed with Honda at the end of last year & it would be great to see them take the fight to Vauxhall. And with Matt at the wheel I have little doubt that they can!

[Amanda]

I think it is going to be very close this year. At the end of last season Honda seemed to be closing on Vauxhall. It should be a great season!

[Alan]

While I am sure Vauxhall (888) will not have been sat round drinking tea all winter, I would expect Honda and MG to be even closer this year.

I also hope that we will see a first win from Proton. Last year was their very first and I am sure (as indicated in todays press release) that they will be going all out for that first win. David Leslie is not to be underestimated - he got close last year.

Prediction - Honda (Matt)

[Les]

well we are off to see Phil B in action at Silverstone on Saturday. He should do well in the Honda with John George and it should limber him up in readiness for Mondello.

[The Stig]

Honda for me - particularly with Matt Neal on board - wouldn't be surprised if, to steal a footy analogy, they did the double.

[thommo_fan]

vauxhall or honda, it will be very close between them 2.

[cav1995]

I still think Vauxhall had the quickest car at the end of last season although Honda were snapping at their heels.

This means they could have concentrated mainly on reliability. Bagging wins when the ballast is low will be vital, but I think that having the top two favorites in the cars for a second year with even more rivalry could be their downfall.

Fingers crossed for the Hat Trick. If they do that it will seal the Astra Coupes place in history next to Baby Bertha.
