I think Rubens has a lot of potential. Other than Michael I think you be hard pressed to find someone better in the rain than Rubens. Remember his first win back in what was it the 2000 season I guess? Being fast in the rain says a lot in my book. It would be weird without Schumi though on Ferrari. Hopefully he doesnt retire for awhile. |

I don't think he would be a good #1. As a #2 he's acceptable. A team player. No complaining that he doesn't get the backing that Michael does. Now as far as being better than Montoya and Ralf? Dunno about that. I personally think that Montoya has a few championships in his future, especially when he learns the tracks and/or Michael retires. |

Once MS goes, RB will be of no use to Ferrari. He must accept the fact he will always be remembered as the #2 man on the team. Being better than the rest? Hard to say when you are in the best car out there. Hey Tatcat, guess you can keep that RB hat for a few more years ! |

I'm happy for him. Ferrari told him that would be his team when Michael retires. |

He is impressing the right people or he wouldnt have gotten the deal and he is still only 29. Maybe they have plans for him to get more support next year? Certainly he must be pleased. Id rather be #2 at Ferrari than #1 at say BAR?  |

Great, not counting his back luck, I think he is still better than most F1 racers including Montoya and R.S.. |

Well, now he has two more years to learn to drive without abusing the car so much. |

Hmm, Rubens is ok for a number 2 driver, but he has the worst luck of any driver i've ever seen. |
