maybe it's Honda signs with Rossi
The contract dispute they had was about the rights to market and control Rossi's name and personality, rather than money.
I can only hope that it was Honda and not Rossi that capitulated in the end.
There's little advantage to the sport when a multinational conglomerate is able to take over the expression of a racer's unique personality, but it's always refreshing when an individual can bring a company like Honda to its knees.
Schumacher knew what to do when he joined Ferrari - he made it clear that the team would proceed in his image, and by his rules, and not the other way around. Let's see if Rossi did the same with Honda.
