WE ARE VERY PLEASED FOR RUBENS THAT HE WILL BE DRIVING IN FORMULA ONE ONCE AGAIN NEXT YEAR.

Ross Brawn, Team Principal, Brawn GP

"We are very pleased for Rubens that he will be driving in Formula One
once again next year. Rubens was with our team for four years and we
regard him as a highly experienced and talented driver whose
contribution to the team over that period was significant.

"2009 was a very special season for Brawn GP and I am extremely proud of
the spirit in which our drivers Rubens and Jenson fought for the
Drivers' Championship. Rubens contributed hugely to our success in the
Constructors' Championship with two great victories in Valencia and
Monza along with numerous podiums and he was a pleasure to work with.

"We wish Rubens the very best with his new team and thank him for his
contribution to Brawn GP this year."
