Mark Webber feels ‘reasonably satisfied’ after opening two Grands Prix of 2012 season – Formula 1
Red Bull Racing driver Mark Webber has said that that he feels satisfied with his performance in the season so far. Moreover, he said that many contenders have not yet shown their true pace.
Webber finished at fourth place in the season opener held at Albert Park in Melbourne, Australia and repeated the same finish at Sepang International Circuit in Malaysian GP.
The Australian driver with his reasonable good and consistent performance, stands at the same fourth position in the championship until now, behind Fernando Alonso of Ferrari, Lewis Hamilton and Jenson Button of McLaren.
Moreover, he said that they are not the only team which has not been able to show its true potential while he said that Mercedes and Lotus are also quite competent with a lot more pace yet to come.
“I'm reasonably satisfied with the way I've started the season, even though my Red Bull Racing team have not been as strong as in the last two years,” Webber said. “The two races so far have not really given us a full form guide. Mercedes have come away
empty-handed, despite showing some strong pace, and Lotus have also got some speed in their car but not quite delivered the results they're capable of. That can happen when everyone's a bit raw in the early races of the season.”
Furthermore, he expressed that his team has really helped him a lot in the essential preparations to take a strong start of the season.
The defending champions had been viewed as the front-runner for this season regardless of the problems faced by them on the last day of the final pre-season test held at Circuit de Catalunya in Barcelona due to the upgrades in RB8 as it could only cover
23 laps and ended last on the timesheets.
Moreover, the team has been seen struggling during the second race. Nevertheless, no less can be expected in the season ahead from the winner of the last two world championship titles.
Besides, Webber stated that he feels confident being in the car. He also said that they will try their best in the upcoming races to reach to the front as only then they can be fully satisfied.
