Current Season

2002 season seen the best opportunity for Ralph to win races and possibly the championship, but all of the pre season talk was on the battle that was looming between Ralph’s teammate Juan Pablo Montoya and Ralph’s Brother Michael. The first race of 2002 in Australia saw Ralph involved in a massive smash which took out nearly half of the grid, but the races after that saw Ralph with some mature drives taking him to 3 podiums out of the first four races including a win. The battles between Montoya and Schumacher have left Ralph’s teammate fighting from the back of the pack on occasions and as said before Ralph’s race ability has been superior to that of his teammate. Although Williams are best of the rest at the moment, it looks as if Ralph is going to have a massive task on his hands to beat his brother and the Ferraris.
