Seriously, what wrong with ED name? Correct me Im wrong, but int the name is inspired by this?

That was the worst F1 car Honda ever campaigned? What is that supposed to inspire? Failure?

Daring to fail is part of Honda's legacy, or DNA. That is what made them successful. They dare to try new stuff, challenge the establishment for the sake of learning how things work. And like CRV-9 said, they rotate their engineers so new engineers can learn by hands down experience. Failure in peoples eyes by looking at results only might hide the fact that Honda learnt new stuff that can be used in production. When Honda pulled F1 the car they developed won the following year, not because of engine choice because if that was so then other teams with Mercedes could have won. Honda focused heavily on aerodynamics and car itself. They developed a winning formula. Look to HondaJet, world leading in every aspect of it, don't you think in 25 years of developing it they went through many failures first in order to achieve the end result? And this with a company with no former experience in aircraft manufacturing. Don't you think things they learned there can come to use in building cars, light weight and aerodynamics, just like Asimo is influencing the car business.

I don't have a problem with them trying new things. I don't have a problem with them failing. However, their failings are NOT inspirational. They are motivational. Whoever posted that picture posted it in an attempt to hold it up and say "look at what Honda can do, and how can ED be a bad name, when it was inspired by this?"

That doesn't inspire anything other than admitting you suck, going back and trying again.

If someone were trying to motivate with Honda's racing pedigree, they would have done so by posting Honda's F1 cars that were actually positive achievements. Or Indy, or any other form of motor sport Honda has been in.
