No, I'm saying the car was only good on certain tracks in certain conditions

I think you'll find that most F1 drivers drive to 100% of their ability at all times.

At the tracks where he did not finish so well I'm sure he was driving as well as he could but the car, or the way the car was set up, wasn't up to it.

Funny how Jenson was also in the same car as Rubens but was class part from him for the vast majority of the season.

Not forgetting that until last year Rubens had won many many more Grand Prix than Jenson and had loads more podiums.

On paper, Rubens was by far the more talented and successful driver.

Or does that have something do with him driving a Ferrari when he won all those Grand prix?

No there aren't but if a driver can conserve his tyres he will be more competetive, very much like in motogp
