The future of Ross Brawn !!

I am taking this discussion from a car forum that I am a member of but brought it over here as there are so many more motorsport enthusiasts present.

The original poster said:

Mercedes have been "edging him out" for the past season. Rumour has him buying into Williams .....but what if this is all a smokescreen. On Sunday Jenson Button was all "secretive smiles" about his next season with McLaren....with Honda engines in 2014 McLarens, it would be logical to build the winning team of Button/Brawn/Honda.

McLaren certainly need to up their game.

Hi Jeremy,

Hope you are well ...

I agree, you never know it might happen.

I am good thank you ...

I think Ross Brawn will retire after Mercedes, but then I don't base that on any insider knowledge..

Button/Brawn/Honda were hardly successful last time. It was only once the Honda engines were ditched for Mercedes power that they won the championship.

what position would Brawn take at Mclaren?

i like the idea of going to/buying into Williams though.

Button going back to Williams would also have a nice symmetry to it. same for Brawn as well.

The problem with Ross Brawn going to Williams is where he'd fit in alongside Sir Frank, Claire and Pat Symonds, and none of the rumours has really explained that.
