Barrichello Delighted with One-Two Finish

A delighted Rubens Barrichello led Michael Schumacher to a one-two win in Hungary on Sunday and triggered Ferrari celebrations with the team's fourth successive Formula One constructors' crown.

A delighted Rubens Barrichello led Michael Schumacher to a one-two win in Hungary on Sunday and triggered Ferrari celebrations with the team's fourth successive Formula One constructors' crown.

The Brazilian started on pole position alongside Schumacher and, with the German's fifth title already secured in record time in France last month, stayed ahead for the third win of his career and second of 2002. The two cars crossed the line close together, Schumacher 0.4 of a second behind.

"It was nice just to have the two cars finish. Then having the constructors' (title) but still winning the race one-two, it was just a fantastic feeling," said Barrichello.

The result lifted Barrichello to second in the Championship and put on hold Schumacher's dream of becoming the first driver to win 10 Grands Prix in a season, having triumphed in nine of the previous 12.

It was still Ferrari's day as the team repeated last year's one-two at the Hungaroring and celebrated an unprecedented 12th constructors' title to match McLaren's 1988-1991 record run of four in a row.

With four races to go, and a maximum of 64 constructors' points up for grabs, Ferrari have an unbeatable 157 points while nearest rivals Williams have 80.

"It's very special for us because it reflects on the team and it reflects on the car," said Ferrari's technical director Ross Brawn. "It's a very important thing for us."

The two drivers, joined by sporting director Jean Todt on the podium and dousing him in champagne, hugged each other as the mechanics and team workers began the party.
