Honda are close to giving the green light to running a second Formula One team next season, Autosport-Atlas has learned.

After Takuma Sato revealed on Tuesday that he was in talks with a mystery 11th team about a deal for 2006, sources have told Autosport-Atlas that the new outfit are set to be backed by Honda themselves.

It is believed that the plan is for them to operate alongside the newly bought-out BAR team

Well as much as I tend to agree with Lude based upon their past couple of years experience, I can only hope now that Honda has bought controlling interest that they can get it right.

And of course, now that Minardi is gone we need a new backmarker...
