Brawn GP may soon sport a Mercedes-Benz three-pointed star after the German automaker commenced discussions to increase its involvement with the championship frontrunners.
Mercedes’ motorsport division handed Brawn a lifeline before the start of the current Formula One campaign, reaching an agreement to supply engines after Honda withdrew from the sport, leaving the outfit without a power plant.
The deal was initially signed on a customer basis, with Mercedes having no visible presence on the British-built Brawn machines.
But the team’s barnstorming success, having won four of the five Grands Prix this year, combined with McLaren’s rapidly falling fortunes, has prompted Mercedes to investigate the possibility of boosting its partnership with Brawn.
