I heard that Rubens had problems with the engine of his F2005 in the test this week, anybody knows about it?? :roll: :?:

Haven't heard. Ferrari don't say much about what happens during testing however Rubens did 95 laps while Michael did 81 the next day. Looks like Michael may have had more problems that Rubens!

As part of his contract, Michael leaves most of the testing to the plebs, so he can play soccer, race karts (and get beaten :lol: ) and breed :shock:

I must admit that I was suprised with the limited amount of testing Michael has done this year. In the past he used to test the new car like crazy. I was also surprised to see that Barrichello tested the F2005 first. That was probably the first time ever this happened.
This could mean that he isn't too happy with it or isn't as motivated :shock: :shock:

How many does he have now :shock: :shock:

A trivia question, nnnooooooo
