It wont be a bad car, it will beable to get into the points consistantly but the real question is Will it be a race winning car?

i think that since Rubino is now away form Ferrair he can show us what hes really made of, he might be JB's teammate but i think that when he starts to consistaintly outrace JB, the team will switch its focus from JB to Rubins, if it even decids to throw its wait behind JB at the begining.

i think that Rubins just mainly had to live in MS's shadow but now he can show his stuff and i think even at Ferrair he has shown that he more than an avrage driver. it would be great to see MS and RB fight it out, no more need for RB to make room for MS

"People were being killed left, right and center back then," [Phil Hill] says. "I became hyper-sensitive to the danger, and wasn't sure that I wasn't going to kill myself. As a result, racing brought out the worst in me. Without it, I don't know what kind of person I might have become. But I'm not sure I liked the person I did become, because I was selfish, irritable and defensive."

:D The thought just struck me like a brick, with Toyota and Chevy out of the IRL Honda no longer has to pour tons of money into that series like the did (A/G racing) they might just have even more money to put into F1 :eusa_think:

Time will tell my American friends time will tell. Remember Villeneuve's defeat to Button in 2003? Before that Jacques was reckoned to be one of the best on the grid... Look at him now!  :lol:

RB will be the next Button loser in 2006... But not as badly beaten as Villeneuve was.  ;)

we have seen that RB can hang with MS and thats no small feat, especialy since they were in the same car

now now, dont start saying MS is on the "downhill" side of the slope, we have seen BR hang with him even in his "uphill" days

cant say we have seen that from JB

Promise me that you'll openly admit on the forum that Jense has done a fantastic job when he has disposed of another "world class" driver.  :P

Notice that I put "world class" hence, I was being sarcastic.

JV would reckoned to be one of the best on the grid in 2003 and Button was going to be destroyed by him. It was the other way round... People are doing the same again with Rubens and as much as I like RB, he will not beat Jenson. It'll be a close battle but Jense will just edge it.

Considering the age differential and that most on this forum don't rate Rubens victorious won't be enough...

What publications were you reading? The one's I saw predicted exactly the opposite!!!

"You just don't mess with Jacques Villeneuve" - Murray Walker, 1997 Hungarian GP.
"When Jacques was with us, he was a very aggressive driver, fiercely competitive, mentally hard as nails. Very quick with it, very gifted. A bright fellow, undoubtedly, very intelligent. He was an absolutely born racing driver - look at the way he'd bang wheels with Michael, pass people on the outside, that kind of thing" -Sir Frank Williams on Jacques Villeneuve
"This year, with BMW, JV's going very well, and I'm pleased for him. Whether or not he'll get a drive next year I don't know, but I hope he does, he's an unusual, and very strong addition to the F1 community. A character." - Sir Frank Williams again on Jacques Villeneuve
The Nojvnof1 2006 driver lineup - Jacques Villeneuve, Nico Rosberg, Christian Klein, Scott Speed.

Michael Schumacher didn’t destroy Rubens!  If Jenson does, he will move up to 3rd on my list of today’s best drivers.  I doubt that will happen as I suspect that Jenson will only beat Rubens and not destroy him…
