Jas and Honda Racing are truly pathetic. AFAIK they never won an international TC championship, and 2018 will be no different. While having the sexiest looking car ever built for TCR...

They have the money.
If they really would have tried, they could have JAS (you know you can sell everything to ribiero and co. If you just negotiate enough) with four cars with world class drivers only and Munich with weaker ones for bop considerations.

Honda spend waaaay to much in motorsport. They burn a fortune with their F1 programe without results. They have a costly motoGP program, and they are involved with a losts of other cathegory (Indycar, SuperGT, DPi, SBK, TCR, WSS, etc), so theydon't have enough money and R&D resource to be competitive inall of theese cathegories.
Thats why they don't support the succesful and professional M1RA and race fint new partners with more money.
