Mark Webber: “I need a win”

Arriving at Silverstone at the end of the month, it will be a year since Mark Webber won a Grand Prix. An unpleasant statistic, which adds to a complicated first part of the season for the pilot Red Bull, characterized by the controversy with his teammate Sebastian Vettel in Malaysia and by results clearly below the latter. In fact, the Australian hopes more than ever to return to the top step of the podium. “ I need a victory », explains the pilot at the Brazilian Totalrace site. “I really hope I can have a whole weekend without worries (In England, Editor’s note). »

Beyond that, the Red Bull driver nevertheless manages to find positive points when he looks back on what has been an eventful year for him, to say the least. Particularly with regard to his running flights, which have often constituted his weak point in recent times. “The starts are really starting to be very good, and for that I would like to thank the team”. If he believes he is improving, the veteran of the set, who will celebrate his 37th birthday in August, knows that he still has a lot of work left. “There are other places where we need to improve”. Especially since the Australian could stay an additional year at Red Bull against all expectations, while many commentators believe that this is his last season in F1. Christian Horner, the main team of the Austrian team, made it known that he intends to discuss with his driver in view of 2014.
