Zoom Changes ahead at Brawn Mercedes

One of Brawn's tasks for the forthcoming winter period is to announce next year's title sponsor.

"We have got a title sponsor, that will become clear over the winter, and we are looking good in other areas," said team boss Ross Brawn.

The Brackley-based outfit's main - albeit minor - sponsor this season has been Virgin, but Sir Richard Branson is taking the brand to the Manor team for next year.

At recent races, Brawn has been supplementing its budget, made up in large part by the contribution made by former owner Honda, with one-off single-race signage deals.

Brawn is confident the team, having won the drivers' and constructors' titles at its first attempt this season, also has a successful future.

"The objective I set with Honda was to be a top-three team every year," he told the Mirror. "You can't win every year but with the resources, people and drivers we have, we can be a top-three team every season."
