Not anything to do with the original Brabham team, just using the name. :saywhat:

(O/T: Trivia time, spot the error in that story).

But not if Sir Jack has his way:

O/T: Nice photo of the Cooper-Climax at Indy in the second link.

Brabham, as a team, won 4 WDCs -- Sir Jack in '66, Denny in '67, and two for Piquet '81 and '83. I think they won the Constructor's Cup only in '66 an '67. Sir Jack won 2 WDCs, but one was for Cooper and the other for his own team.

1959, 1960 back to back for Cooper, 1966 for Brabham. Black Jack is a three time WDC.

They're building up the name recognition in case McLaren, Ferrari, and the others bail. I assume we'll be seeing Tyrrell on the entry list, as well.:shakehead
