Rubens Barrichello: The oldest tricks in the book
Rubens Barrichello has proven many times during his career that he is capable of squeezing giant-killing results out of unlikely cars in difficult conditions, and his podium at Silverstone was a prime example. Adam Cooper spoke to him
It's perhaps not surprising that many folk have compared Lewis Hamilton's victory at Silverstone with Ayrton Senna's famous success at Donington back in 1993. Given that both men scored dominant wins in McLarens, and that the Leicestershire track was in the news over the British GP weekend, it was a logical connection to make.
Only one man took part in both races and thus could truly compare the two events, and he was standing alongside Lewis on the podium - just as he very nearly stood alongside Senna 15 years ago.
