Mark Webber Q&A: The bar has been set very high |
2012-02-06 23:03:00 |

It's good to remain with Red Bull for another year and have this opportunity with the world championship-winning team, said the 23 year-old Swiss driver. I would prefer to be driving at the races of course, but working with Red Bull Racing on the development of their car and providing them with feedback throughout the season is the next best thing.

| Everything finally went Mark Webber's way at Interlagos on Sunday, as the he took the lead from fast-starting Red Bull team mate Sebastian Vettel on the 40th lap as the double world champion suffered from an overheating gearbox.
Vettel had opened a lead from pole position but was obliged from the 13th lap to nurse the transmission, turning down his engine, shortshifting and using only the higher gears in a manner he later likened to Ayrton Senna and his drive here in 1991 except that, as he quickly pointed out, Senna won.

Practice One - Webber fastest for Red Bull at Interlagos |
2011-11-25 22:53:00 |
| Seven-tenths of a second separated the top six drivers after Friday morning's first practice session at Interlagos. Mark Webber set the pace for Red Bull with 1m 13.811s, but he was only 0.014s ahead of Jenson Button, who posted 1m 13.825s, and 0.150s ahead of Lewis Hamilton, who lapped in 1m 13.961s in the second McLaren. Hamilton aborted a final effort to go quicker.
Red Bull's Sebastian Vettel just failed to break into the 1m 13s with 1m 14.025s, leaving the top four just 0.214s apart, while the Ferraris had a mixed day. On his 100th appearance for them, Felipe Massa was fifth on 1m 14.507s, with Fernando Alonso sixth on 1m 14.541s. The Spaniard took a long while to get going, then stopped near the end after slowing in Turn One with similar engine troubles to those he experienced in India.

Brazil preview - intense Interlagos hosts fight for final spoils |
2011-11-24 19:37:00 |
| Back in 2009 Red Bull's Mark Webber dominated the Brazilian Grand Prix and would dearly love to close out a winless 2011 season with a repeat victory, as he bids to overhaul McLaren's Jenson Button and Ferrari's Fernando Alonso for second overall.
Brazil is one of the best races of the year, the Australian says. It's a track which reminds me of Brands Hatch and the Formula Ford racing there because it's a like a bowl in terms of the atmosphere. The Brazilian people love their motorsport and are extremely passionate about it, obviously off the back of Piquet, Senna, Fittipaldi and Rubens Barrichello - they've had some really great drivers.

Practice Two - Hamilton top as floodlight follows sunlight |
2011-11-11 23:57:00 |
| McLaren ruled the roost in Abu Dhabi on Friday afternoon, as Formula One racing went into the twilight zone around 1700 hours local time. And both Ferrari's Fernando Alonso and Red Bull's Sebastian Vettel fell foul of a slippery Turn One and touched the outer wall in their efforts to keep up.
Vettel and Webber set the initial pace for Red Bull before the sun began to slip from the sky, running the soft Pirellis as the McLarens clocked fast times on the mediums. Then after Alonso had a spell out front for Ferrari, McLaren's Lewis Hamilton took control with 1m 39.586s and team mate Jenson Button trimmed down to 1m 39.785s, 0.199s slower. Alonso's best was 1m 39.971s before he slid off backwards into the wall.

But while there was no point in the latter pushing harder on a second run, as Mark Webber was not going to improve his own third fastest 1m 24.508s, Vettel went out again and trimmed down to 1m 24.178s to secure his 13th pole position of the year.
