While Toyota and Honda are leaving formula 1 and Renault is contemplating the fluff on their collective navel Mercedes have decided that the time is right for the move back into serious competition.
To make the move as cheaply as possible Mercedes is buying this year’s winner of the both world titles Brawn and from next year the team will race as Mercedes Gran Prix.
Drivers are yet to be announced but Mercedes Grand Prix could be going with an all German line up of Nico Rosberg with either Nich Heidfeld or Timo Glock as second driver … although at this point in time there’s a possibility that Jenson Button could also be a possibility.
