Will Brembo become Formula 1 single brake supplier in the future?

All that has to do with the power train, gearbox, clutch, fuels and lubricants, etc. Generally the mechanical side of Formula One.

Most teams use Brembo or AP Racing, or a mix of both. AP Racing is a subsidiary of Brembo.

so they already are and on the other hand they are not.

Safran (Carbone Industrie) are the other main supplier for F1 brake discs (than Brembo), although Hitco are also used in some instances. Many teams have run more than one material as a driver feel preference on disc supplier - so they may each of their two cars on a different material supplier.

Other braking companies in F1: Endless, Alcon, Akebono.

Basically, the answer to the initial question is, "no".

Even within the Mercedes team Roberg was using Brembo, while Hamilton prefered Carbon Industries.
