Honda Racing Formula One Team was looking to take their first point/s of the season going into Sunday’s United States Grand Prix. But after a poor showing at the race held at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway, it looks as if Honda would have to wait for the next race to break into the scoring column.

Drivers Rubens Barrichello and Jenson Button seemed to have switched places after the Canadian Grand Prix. At the race held at the Circuit Gilles Villeneuve in Montreal, Barrichello only managed to take the twelfth spot while Button was forced to retire.

The Indiana Pacers have experienced success in both the ABA and NBA. However, they continue to strive towards their first NBA championship.
