Ross Brawn worked at Honda all last season and continued working on the car even after Honda pulled out. Like BMW, Red Bull and Toyota they started work on this year's much earlier than other teams who still had title contenders - with this year's ban on testing it puts those teams in an advantageous position.
Ross Brawn and Adrian Newey were arguably what made Benetton then Ferrari and Williams then McLaren great in the 90s and 00s respectively. Now they are the head techs at Brawn and Red Bull.
Brawn were Honda, who were BAR, who were Tyrell. Red Bull were Jaguar(Ford) who were Stewart(Ford). Severing all ties though, Brawn use the Mercedes engines which Lewis won with last year and Red Bull use new Renault engines which they have been allowed to "equalise" to match their competitor's horsepower.
In other news, Kovalainen and Kubica FTL, again. Jensen and Heidfeld replace them.

I win and you all crash into the back of Trulli on the first lap, are sacked and replaced by a fat german with a dodgy neck. Also you are hit on the bonce by a spring and accuse your entire team of cheating. Like any of that would happen.Code: Select all
