“These last four months I preferred silence,” Barrichello said on his website after Honda sold their team to Ross Brawn, the man who led it last season and worked with the Brazilian at Ferrari.

“People said I was done, that nobody wanted me, and there was one who wrote that Bruno Senna had already signed for three years with the team, an absurd story where the desperate (reporter) tried to get a beat without having any basis or source,” said Barrichello.

“The important thing is that during this period of hard times I kept my faith, worked my body out hard and kept quiet, speaking only to the team’s personnel.
