60 YEARS SINCE OUR FIRST RACE
In 1962, not even the word F1 was known in Japan.
“I don’t know if it’s possible, but I want to do it!”
Driven by the founder of the motorcycle company that had not even sold one car, Soichiro Honda’s fervent passion of not knowing if it is possible but wanting to do it anyway, Honda’s seemingly reckless challenge had begun.
60 years have passed since Honda’s first F1 participation in the German Grand Prix in August 1964.
