Honda Racing have unveiled their new dramatic colour scheme.

MyEarthDream is the website for all of the details behind the scheme.

MyEarthDream is a charity that the team has set up, this allows you to ’sponsor’ the car.

Team boss Nick Fry believes exposure through Formula One can help to raise awareness of the problems currently facing the environment.

Fry said: “Climate change is probably the single biggest issue facing the global community and F1 is not immune from it.”

“On the contrary, we believe that F1 with its huge global profile and cutting edge technology can play an important role in not only highlighting the issues but also playing our part in developing solutions.

“In addition, [F1's governing body] the FIA recognises the opportunity for

F1 to showcase innovative technologies for the benefit of society for the long term. For example, by 2009, devices for energy recovery will be in place on the cars.

“So we at Honda F1 are proud to dedicate our car to the environmental challenge. We believe that practical solutions can stem directly from engineers working on our F1 programme.”
