May 28 (GMM) Mike Conway, the 24-year-old British race driver, has set his sights on entering formula one with Honda.
Last year, as reigning British F3 champion, he signed an agreement as a rising star with the Japanese team, and at Monaco last weekend he won from pole position on the prestigious street circuit in the second GP2 support race.
But Conway, who is managed by former grand prix drivers Martin Brundle and Mark Blundell, admitted that he needs to follow up his win with more good results.
He suggested, however, to the British tabloid newspaper The Sun, that he is hoping a vacancy arises soon at Honda, whose UK-built F1 cars are currently occupied by Jenson Button and Rubens Barrichello.
"Honda is a good place to be," Conway said. "They are starting to get results and next year they will be even stronger."
