Brawn to be Ferrari boss in 2008 - report
Wednesday 27 June at 13:20 : Ross Brawn will almost certainly take over from Jean Todt next year as boss of Ferrari's formula one team.

That is the information of the German newspaper Bild, which said the highly respected British engineer is sure to return to the Maranello based team from his one-year sabbatical in 2008 despite offers from rival outfits including Honda.

The 52-year-old's new post could also entice Michael Schumacher into a more prominent position at Ferrari, with Bild speculating that the retired seven time world champion is using his visits to races this year to learn the ropes before becoming a key strategic expert.

Schumacher, 38, is already scheduled to appear again at Magny Cours.

Bild quoted Brawn as confirming that he will not return to Ferrari to be technical director next year, "but there could be new possibilities on the race team."
