Ross Brawn has been around the sport long enough to witness two of the greatest drivers this sport has ever seen. Recently, while talking about Hamiltonâs struggles with Mercedes, Brawn had a very astute comparison to make.
He said, âMichael redefined his role back then, so he was part of the solution and helped build the team that would go on to win eight straight constructorsâ titles. He sacrificed himself for the future of the team, so to speak.â. Brawn then went on to compare the two. âYou can compare Lewisâ situation a bit with Michaelâs comeback with Mercedes. As a driver, you always have to decide whether you want to be part of the solution or part of the problem.â.
