ETCC- When will JAS return?
There'd been rumours JAS would run two Honda Civic Type R at Silverstone. And what happend? Nothing! When can we see the Jas-Hondas in ETCC?

So the ETCC has temporarily waived the rules to allow the Civic Type R to race, but how long do you think the waiver would last? It was only supposed to be one year? But does the waiver only apply to the Works team or do you think all the teams will have to convert to a sedan?

There are no works Honda teams. The waiver is for one year only to tempt in the works entry but it never happened.

There was 1 Civic Type-R racing at Silverstone by CiBiEmme Team. The new shape Accord is being raced next year I believe.

I think that Honda running an Accord was part of the agreement in letting a Civic Type-R run, but I'm not sure if that's right now as Honda isn't a factory team.
