And rubens may now be watching the hungarian gp from home.
I've always respected him, but this is not the first time he's publicly sold his team down the river. Michael was asked before the race if the chance to work with Ross again came up would he? He said he didn't see it as his future. I think he should now start seeing it lol.
Forthright views from Frank Williams and Eddie Jordan. Very poor show, and maybe time to introduce and experienced racer team mate to support Button's title push.
Maybe Rubens could go to the 5Live commentary box in Hungary in a swap...

As for the Brawns, we'll just have to wait and see.
I really do get rather fed up with "sensitive" drivers. Unfortunately for Rubens, he is a second fiddle, always has been. He spent way too long at Ferarri playing it. To even think for one second he would be treated as an equal to MS, what planet was he on?? Having played said fiddle for such a long time, he should know what a supporting role is and sadly for him, once Jenson scooted off in to the distance, that role reared it's head again. OK, at one point, he was out at the front, but when it all unraveled, then it was time to smile at his half hour of glory and get out is violin again. Frank Williams has the right idea. First constructors championship and then the driver's championship. I have to say I am surprised at how calm Ross Brawn has remained. When your driver very publicly berates you........Mind you, we don't know what happened behind closed doors.....Yes we do, Rubans once Brawn had ripped him a new one, burst into tears, everyone realised what a sensitive boy he is, said "there, there Rubans, the nasty man did not mean to upset you, you can win the next race"

1. Captain, if the problem is not entered into the technical logbook.........then the aircraft does not have a problem.
2. And, if you have time to write the fault on a napkin and attach to it to the yoke.........you have time to write it in the tech log....see point 1.
