Brawn GP saves Honda F1

Though rumours have been going around regarding a management buy-out led by Ross Brawn over the former Honda F1 team, now it is confirmed and in a few weeks time will make its debut in the Australian GP. Well the irony is that Brawn GP will use Mercedes engines for the 2009 season and well we all know how Brawn was part of the crack Ferrari unit which total defeated McLaren for like 5 straight years!

Anyways atleast they managed to have an engine supplier at such a short notice and hope Brawn GP does decently enough in the coming season. I don’t see them challenging the title contenders but from what they have been claiming about the car development from last season, well they may go on and challenge the likes of Williams, STR and Toyota. Red Bull and Renault would be tough to challenge and these two teams may pull off a few surprises and even upset the top3 boys in F1.

Last year’s line-up of Jenson Button and Rubens Barrichello will team up once again and well I would have seen Bruno Senna given a drive but then that is for another day and I hope this experience line-up can pull off something and give something to cheer for Brawn GP.
