Barrichello not ready to give up
Rubens Barrichello said that he does not need a big contract but just a competitive car to continue his Formula One career Sau Paulo: Rubens Barrichello’s parting words after the final race of the season in Brazil offered no acknowledgement he might have competed for the last time in Formula One. “I’m almost doing it for nothing already,” he laughed when asked whether he might race for free. While compatriot Felipe Massa performed ‘doughnuts’ for the crowd, revving his engine and spinning the Ferrari around in a circle of smoke, Barrichello held back. “I said ‘No way’,” grinned the man who spent six seasons with Schumacher at Ferrari, winning nine races there but more often reduced to the role of riding shotgun for the seven-times world champion.
