This template is very poorly named as David Brown owned several companies involved in various areas of engineering. The racing team of one of his car companies is a very minor part of David Brown Ltd. The359 (Talk) 17:52, 5 November 2016 (UTC)Reply

In fact, I'm fairly certain "David Brown Corporation" is a completely made-up title. David Brown Ltd. and David Brown Racing Department are two titles I am certain were used by the racing team.

(edit conflict) Agreed, there is already Template:Aston Martin Racing which covers all the sporting interests of David Brown Ltd., (not 'Corporation') at the time. However, the AMR template also covers the later, post-Brown years. There's also an excess of driver detail. However I believe 'corporation' was used as an entrant in F1; the Aston Martin DBR4 and DBR5 pages bear this out as does Small, Guinness Complete Grand Prix Who's Who, (1994), pages 333, 352 and 384.
