Ross Brawn

It has emerged that Formula 1 boss Ross Brawn has admitted a speeding offence of travelling over 100mph in Devon, which saw him escaping a driving ban despite already having 3 points on his license. His punishment comprised of a £700 fine (laughable for someone with the money of Brawn I’m sure) and his license will receive further endorsement for speeding.

I’ve no doubt that Brawn has a lot of driving experience, but travelling at over 100mph doesn’t just put him at risk – but all other road users too. Being late for an appointment isn’t much excuse and you’d think that someone who runs an F1 team would, given his status, try to be an exemplary driver on the road.

What are your thoughts? Should Ross Brawn have been banned from driving or was his punishment fair?
