Just because MS was a mechanic that does not mean he was a good one.

You mean they couldn't find any sponsors - just like BGP can't....
And from what i've heard Brawn had plenty of sponsors knocking, but they haven't taken, i think they only want 1 primary sponsor instead of a few 'small' sponsors. I'm pretty sure just after Melbourne they could have gotten a bankrupt bank to sponsor them. Now BGP is running a smaller budget than teams like Mclaren, Ferrari, etc... so it should be easier in a way to cover their costs.

I don't even understand the point of all this thread. So Honda spent a lot of money developing the car, so what? Brawn's success can not all be attributed to RB? Of course not, he's a huge part of it, but not all.
Sounds like just another attempt by the usual Brawn detractors.

I did mention the one-time "dream team" at Ferrari, didn't I? and also said that Brawn may have fashioned a similar team in the current team, is all

^^ you are right. I think the deal with Virgin was somewhat restrictive or limited. I also think the deal was for only a few races 
Yes I am correct - glad you have finally come around...
