Ross Brawn says Ferrari boys will eventually crash
From f1-live.com
Rubens Barrichello has warned Ferrari team-leader Michael Schumacher to watch his back as the Formula One season prepares to enter its second half in France.
The Brazilian claims he's the 'only team-mate' ever to attempt overtaking the six-times world champion both in Montreal and again at Indianapolis on Sunday.
''I really want to win now,'' said Rubens, who reckons he should have won both Grands Prix but is still in a stronger championship position than he was in '03.
As of Indy, Barrichello has 62 points.
''The whole of last year,'' Rubens continued, ''I only got 65.
''I should be closer [to Michael] than 18 points.
''But I think I still have a chance this year.''
Teams are not really allowed to order drivers to stop challenging each other for position, but Barrichello was seen to settle for second in the final Indy stint.
''They don't want to knock each other [out],'' explained Ross Brawn.
''So it's really up to their judgment. I think eventually they will crash.''
:lmao: That will make headlines... Ferraris loses world championship as Michael Schumacher and Rubens Barichello collide.

racing is racing...
Teammates or not, they should go for what they can when they can. Team orders are the worst thing ever. Michael's car will always be the favorite child in the red horse garage, as long as Rubens likes to sit in the cheap seats with the best team, he will never win what he should. Unfortunately, he won't leave to try with another team because noone in their right mind would leave a Ferrari ride with the greatest F1 driver of all time being the #1 driver.

Brazil is a land of some of the greatest drivers in F1 and almost all racing categories around the world ... and i'm not brazilian but in Brazil they're pretty much desapointed with Barrichelo, i'm telling you because i used to live in Brazil for 10 years ... he's a good driver however he's a excellent Ferrari employee .. he doesn't want to put Brazil back on Nē1 ,,, because he doesn't stand .. he's a shame
