Exclusive interview - Honda's Ross Brawn

Honda came painfully close to points in Australia, the team's first race under Ross Brawn's leadership. Although Jenson Button crashed out on lap one, Rubens Barrichello finished sixth, only to then be excluded for running a red light.A DNF and a disqualification may not have been the result Brawn was hoping for, but he is positive that the very fact they were in contention for points - a rarity last season - means things are heading in the right direction...
