"It's just down to experience. Jenson will win many races in due course, but right now I know how to win and hope I'll get the chance to prove it with BAR next season. If I do, there's no reason why I can't challenge for the title."


I think he is just plain stupid and asking for more bashing of him. Every one precieve Jenson as savior of BAR and he's saying he could do better? Umm...look at himself, clearly the Mclaren has won a race this year, therefore the car is capable. Where is he now? Constantly behind Kimi. I guess he picked up a thing or 2 from Ron, but as usual, nothing good.
Absolutely agree with you 100%. If he had in him to win championships he would have done it by now. He had the best of cars and he didnt do it...

What does one get when one gets DC:
- guaranteed mid pack qualifying (unless perhaps the rules are changed drastically)
- in the race ... fight back from tenth starting position to maybe 6th at best

He is a woulda coulda shoulda guy who will be a decent but not exceptional second driver
