A good driver is good on all the tracks, not just the ones he fancies 
Personally I think that he'll start making excuses for his performance this year  |
the fact is if an F1 car doesn't perform then there is nothing a driver can do as Lewis showed at the start of the season and Kimi and Massa did too with the Ferrari.
The Brawn had a very small window where it worked brilliantly but outside that window it was rubbish. That window included hot weather to get heat into the tyres, the very thing that made the car good meant it didn't work in the cold weather.
Rubens was able to get a bit more heat into his tyres hence he could get a bit more out of the car but during the very hot weather where the car was perfect he couldn't get as much as of the car as JB.
At the end of the day a driver is only as good as the car they are given, the days or a driver bringing 2-3 seconds to a car are long gone
