F1 on track( part 2)_奥运英语

　“i am probably the only man in his life that got him wet,” the brazilian grinned after the podium celebrations. “i feel pretty happy about that, too.”

　barrichello is a winner on a roll, ferrari's main man for the last two races despite his clear second-string status in schumacher's shadow. ferrari team boss, jean todt, has great expectations for the brazilian, uttering words not heard since the end of last season, when schumacher had a similar nightmare in japan： “all our chances of victory rest on rubens.”

　“it's been a season where i have been playing 'catch up' with michael,” he said. “he started on a higher level and, for some reason, i wasn't able to catch him.”

　“right now, i am just going through a nice phase, and here in china, since the beginning of the week, i have been setting good times, and the set-up of the car was quite good.”

　the 10 points earned guarantee barrichello second place in the driver's championship for the second time in his career, while the win is his ninth in a 196-race career.

　“physically, i would say this race is a lot tougher than monza,” said the brazilian, who won in italy two weeks ago.

　“every time when you're winning, it's different. i thought at monza we had a car that was much quicker than our competitors. here we did not.”

　schumacher, who has a record 136 points, with barrichello on 108, insisted he had enjoyed the race despite his problems.

　“i was racing for pleasure,” said the 35-year-old.

　“i had nothing to lose, nothing to win, nothing to prove. i was just going for it.”
