Wiki says posted:

Brawn GP Formula One Team, the trading name of Brawn GP Limited, was a Formula One world championship-winning motor racing team and constructor, created by a management buyout of Honda Racing F1 Team, but using a Mercedes engine. Ross Brawn was quoted as saying "gently caress everyone, I'm so good at this going to make my own team with my own funding and whoop everyone's rear end in our first year then get bought out by Merc and line my pockets." It only competed in the 2009 Formula One World Championship, with drivers Jenson Button and Rubens Barrichello. The team clinched that year's Constructors' Championship, and Button took the drivers' title. For 2010, the team again changed identity, becoming Mercedes GP.

On its racing debut, the season-opening 2009 Australian Grand Prix, the team took pole position and 2nd place in qualifying and went on to finish first and second in the race. Button won six of the first seven races of the season and on 18 October at the Brazilian Grand Prix, he secured the 2009 Drivers' Championship and the team won the Constructors' Championship. Barrichello won twice and finished third in the Drivers' Championship. The team won eight of the season's seventeen races, and by winning both titles in its only year of competition became the first to achieve a 100% championship success rate.

On 16 November 2009 it was confirmed that the team's engine supplier, Mercedes-Benz, in partnership with Aabar Investments had purchased a 75.1% stake in Brawn GP (Mercedes: 45.1%; Aabar: 30%),[1] which was renamed Mercedes GP for the 2010 season

Well gently caress. Didn't make it out of processing, believe it or not the loving chain caused an auto take down request by fleetwood mac.

Brawn is a cool and good old school maverick car designer who needs to join Renault with flavio as team principle.

Nico never won anything when the car wasn't amazing. Even in 2013 that car was outright the fastest car, it just happened to chew through tires.

I would argue he was actually a good driver. If he had been in the Ferrari in 1999 we could have had WDC Rubens Barrichello but they decided to hire some Mick with cerebral palsy.

He got absolutely destroyed by Schumi every year, just like Alonso destroyed Massa, he wasn't poo poo ok but he wasn't WDC material either tbh.

1989 has no unattractive cars. Even the biggest pieces of poo poo that year looked good.

I tried to disprove that but even the BMS Italia Dallaras and loving Coloni knocked it out of the park that year.
