Webber happy with Hamilton victory

If victory eluded today? Red Bull, this doesn't really bother Mark Webber, quite the contrary. Lewis Hamilton puts an end to the impressive harvest of victory of Sebastian Vettel. Which is not a bad thing for preserving suspense. “ Congratulations to Lewis, launches the Australian. It's good that someone finally beats Seb. We're on the same team, but he was on a phenomenal run, and we're all fighting for wins. Too bad the victory goes to McLaren, but we couldn't let Seb get so far ahead. It's a great day for the championship, and also for the team in terms of points. »

Mark Webber crossed the finish line in a very good 3rd place. An unexpected podium in view of his 17th position on the starting grid. “It was an interesting race, we decided to start on hard tyres. We know it wasn't the best, but we had to get back into the traffic. It was not an easy task to come back to these pilots. After 15 laps, I was still 17th, but I know the competitiveness of the car well. I also had new tires in reserve after qualifying. It helped me get back on track. Maybe the best thing is to not participate in the qualifiers and leave here. All joking aside, we did a good job. Nobody gave up. »
