Mark Webber warns all his rivals for latter races
Well after looking at the Hungarian Grand Prix one could not help but wonder if Red Bull is a blessing for its team driver Mark Webber or is it the other way round, and probably all what one can conclude is that both the team and the driver together make a perfect combination.
The season has seen a head to head competition among all the racers since its beginning, as all the teams have kept upgrading their cars time and again and many of the drivers have shown wonders on the track. In such a tense situation the only driver who had been able to shine out is this Australian man.
This season Webber stands out as the only one who has bagged four race wins while the other four leading drivers have won two races each. Having won the race of last month at Budapest, just before this month’s summer break, Webber has dispatched a warning message to all his rivals that telling that they will be seeing the same strong performances by him the rest of the season as well.
Besides the fact that his teammate, Sebastian Vettel was faster than him during the qualifiers and claimed pole position, Webber dominated the final day proceedings despite having the race started from second place on the grid, marking it to be his fourth win of the year, leaving the Ferrari driver, Fernando Alonso eighteen seconds behind him.
After watching him leave the Hungarian race in jubilation many of the analysts questioned Webber if his RB6 and its innovative front wing will be able to perform with same perfection on other tacks as well in the upcoming races as well, for which he optimistically replied that he believes that the latter part of the season will be even better.
On their official website, the Red Bull proclaimed that they had been able to perform good all through the year on all kinds of tracks therefore they hope to continue with the same pace in the rest of the races as well.
“Singapore should be good, Suzuka, Brazil and Abu Dhabi. We’re a little bit worried about how the long straights might go at some of the other venues, at Monza maybe. But the car is very, very strong at most tracks so we’re ready to take on anyone at any venue,” added the Red Bull team.
Many of the other competitors have also shown great form and confidence this season like both McLaren men as well as both the Ferrari drivers especially, Fernando Alonso, and last but not the least the other Red Bull driver Sebastian Vettel has raced brilliantly right from the beginning, yet the stats clearly pronounce Webber to be the strongest man on the track this season.
With the confidence and the spirit with which he moves for the rest of the season, and the assurance that he had shown for his car, Webber is hopeful that he can add a few more feathers to his cap the rest of the year.
Despite his great car and the bright stars shinning bright above him Webber is not taking anything for granted. Even while he is heading for a few weeks’ holiday, he admits the fact that the entire crew of Red Bull team needs to keep working hard consistently if they wish to emerge victorious in both the championships at the end of the year.
While talking to his fans through his official website he told, “We’ve had some small hiccups but you need perfect weekends to win at this level. Every race gives 25 points and we need to perform everywhere. If we can do that you never know what could happen at the end of the year.”
At the moment Webber tops the Drivers’ Championship charts with one hundred and sixty one points leaving Lewis Hamilton at second-place with one hundred and fifty seven points so far.
