Juan Pablo Montoya will join up with Kimi Raikkonen, his rival from the Brazilian Grand Prix, in the McLaren team but that's a high-risk strategy.
As far as Ferrari are concerned, it doesn't work - period.
Although they say they don't have a number one and number two, everyone knows that Rubens is the number two and gets that treatment.
The team is built around Michael Schumacher - they think the team becomes compromised when you have to split your resources between two drivers equally.
What the fans get is great racing and fantastic showdowns as we have had in the past between McLaren drivers and in the past with Williams drivers, who operate that sort of policy.
Just look back at Mansell and Prost or at previous Williams drivers who have clashed.
Sometimes when you are in the final throes of a championship challenge, it's not the best to have your two drivers fighting each other.
That's what Ferrari look at but to me all credit goes to McLaren and Williams - that's the racers' view of it.
But what you do say to your drivers is try not to hit each other or take each other out and may the best man win.
And in the final race of the season, that's what you got especially on lap five when they both came into the pits.
It was an epic dice and they both came in together and came out alongside each other. Kimi got a big 10,000 dollar fine for running side by side down the pit lane but it was still great to see.
