I understand what you're saying ... but it seems crazy to me to leave because he's sick of being number 2. It implies that the reason he was number 2 is due to some management decision or something, when in reality it was because he wasn't fast enough to beat MS.
If he goes somewhere else he may end up being paired with a slower driver, so that he can be #1 in the team ... but will he be better or worse off in the overall standings? Ferrari are sucking right now, but with all new cars and rules next year they could easily be on top again, especially with all the time and money they have sunk into research for next year.
