once again i must say Rubens has been totally outclassed... i always had the impression that he is only a few tenths or hundreths slower than MS but the past 2 GP's have been utterly disappointing...

Just normal Rubens stuff. He can't handle the shorter wheelbase cars that are tailor made for Schuey. They are knife edge things.
OK, in 2002 it was a short base, but Michael didn't push himself at all. In 2003 they had a long base and Schuey was pushing his hardest and Rubens was right with him. Back to reality this year. |

And everyone laughing at my wonderful predictions, where were yours eh? EH?
I may be a curse.....I was on a qualifying thread and Jenson was doing great on his lap. I typed "looking good for Jenson" or something like that and he immediately ran wide as I pressed the last "n". Next time, I'll keep my gob shut. Maybe. |

It's really nonsense to suggest "shorter wheelbase cars..tailor made for Schuey"....hopefully you're not serious about it.
If you read any technical explanations for Ferrari's changes to regulations, it's all with the aim to suit the new regulations while ironing out apparent problems from last year...it goes beyond just making a car suit MS instead of RB. And precisely, it is such inconsistent performance from Rubens that make me doubt (as brilliant a driver as he can be) whether he could ever be a lead Ferrari driver, and also wonder if MS has added his own couple of tenth and made an already brilliant Ferrari/BS package look better than it really is. Exciting grid for the actions tomorrow...We have 2 hard-cores ahead (though i have a feeling Juan will try prove a point and vent his frustration), then we have a poorly placed hardcharging Button who wants to get back onto the podium. Rubens would also be trying hard to get back into the game. Generally a well mixed grid in the first half at least |

Gee, thanks Pitstop!
Gt_R, you misunderstood me.......I didn't mean Ferrari build cars to suit Schuey better, just that a car with nervous characteristics (short wheelbase for example) is bound to suit Michael better because of his car control! Geez, Ferrari fans can be so easily offended! |
