Brawn and Byrne re-sign for Ferrari
FERRARI has hit back at comments by Damon Hill that its technical team is "stale" by announcing that technical director Ross Brawn and chief designer Rory Byrne are to continue at Maranello until the end of the 2001 season.
The news that the two men have been re-signed must, therefore, be regarded as a publicity exercise - although it is quite possible that options were recently taken up by Ferrari as the contracts have been running for almost exactly two years.
