Fry expects 'different' Barrichello in '07

Quote:
 

Fry believes that Barrichello's form last year was hindered by him not feeling comfortable with Honda Racing's traction control and braking systems - areas he has tweaked for this year.

Yea read that earlier, i dont think losing 5 kg will make him go much faster look at Mansell he was pretty unfit yet very fast.

Just to clarify Saint, which question did you mean?

When did DC202 read that earlier?
When did Rubens lose 5kg?
or
When was Mansell ever unfit but fast?

Agreed - look at his speed compared to the others in GP Masters and even his brief BTCC career when the 'tashe was gone!

I don't get it, was Rubens 5 kilos overweight? If so why wasn't the team kicking his ass over his fitness levels?

I fully expect Fry to be wrong about his assumptions. Rubens always said that he had the desire to win but he only saw fit to get fit this year. Shows how how easy it must have been to win in the Ferrari.

I think last season showed that his talents were inflated by a fast car. Look at how in 2005 he was again nowhere to Schumacher...
