How Red Bull can challenge Button and Brawn
Red Bull Racing has been the closest team to Brawn this year, and is expected to challenge the championship leader for victory at Silverstone this weekend. But the competition between its two drivers has been closer than its fight with Jenson Button so far
If anyone is going to spoil the Silverstone party for Jenson Button and Brawn this weekend, the chances are it's going to be Red Bull Racing.
The World Championship leaders may have had the edge on pace at Istanbul Park, but even Button concedes that the flowing corners in Northants could favour the dark blue cars. As he put it, Brawn hopes to make up ground in the slower stuff at the end of the lap.
