All three Brawn BGP 001 chassis were brought together for the first time at the Goodwood Members' Meeting.
Jenson Button, who won the 2009 drivers' championship with Brawn GP, was reunited with the machinery in his first appearance at the Members' Meeting.
The story of Brawn GP is one of the most fascinating in the history of Formula 1, with it becoming the centre of the Brawn: The Impossible Formula 1 Story docuseries fronted by Hollywood actor Keanu Reeves in 2023.
Ross Brawn, who had previously served as Honda team principal, famously purchased the Honda Racing F1 Team for £1 after the Japanese outfit announced its withdrawal from the championship in December 2008 due to the financial crisis in the same year.
For the first time ever, all three Brawn BGP 001 chassis have been united at #83MM, where we're celebrating the impossible story of #Brawn - the £1 #F1 team that overcame every adversity to become the World Championship's greatest underdog story.

With Button and his team-mate Rubens Barrichello behind the wheel of the Brawn GP cars, the team secured eight grand prix wins, 15 podium finishes and five pole positions in its only season in the championship. Button claimed his sole drivers' championship title, and Barrichello finished the season third behind Sebastian Vettel.
In November 2009, Brawn GP was bought by Mercedes.
"I am excited to be making my Members' Meeting debut," Button said ahead of the event. "And in no less special a car than the Brawn BGP 001. I last had a chance to drive it back in 2019, which was incredibly emotional and quite surreal. I cannot wait to experience that feeling all over again, and where better than Goodwood!"
In addition to getting behind the wheel of his championship-winning BGP 001, Button also drove his Chevrolet Camaro Z28 and a Jaguar E-type around the famed circuit. "Jenson Button went for a wild ride in his Chevrolet Camaro Z28 as he tested the limits during practice for the Gordon Spice Trophy," Goodwood Road & Racing posted.
