Ross Brawn is facing a driving ban after being caught speeding on a public road in southwest England, British media reported on Tuesday.


The team boss was reportedly driving a Mercedes-Benz at 100mph (*) on a road in Okehampton, Devon where the limit is 70.


British media said the Briton did not appear at Plymouth Magistrates' Court on Monday, and that the case has been adjourned until September while his team races in Spain and Belgium.


* The original story wrongly stated 161mph. The correct speed is 100mph (161 km/h).
