Webber wants his piece of the pie

If, after 129 Grands Prix contested, the Australian has still not won a single race in Formula 1, the person concerned puts this figure down to the lack of competitiveness of the single-seaters entrusted to him. This is what he told the Times, in an interview where he expressed his desire to win a GP: ? People can say that I could have done better. But look at the teams I've been to. My respective teammates, with the exception of this year, have not won a race either! »

Mark Webber therefore defends a clean record of any success, expressing his certainty of being a talented driver. The pilot Red Bull does not hesitate to attempt a surprising comparison: “Am I Michael Schumacher ? Maybe not. Do I have the ability to win races? Absolutely, and I think I'm going to do it this year. » If he is so sure of himself, it is because he is aware of having a car competitive: It's fantastic. You arrive on the track and the cars move aside to let you pass because they know you are faster. »

Mark Webber thinks he will win by the end of the season, he owes it above all to the performance of his car and he has not forgotten that. “ I think I'm going to win a Grand Prix, I hope even more than one. Because, for the first time in my career, I think I have the possibility of doing it. » Teammate of Sebastian Vettel, the Australian recognizes that he has a serious challenger within his own team. “ I have always been better than my teammates, but here I have one who is testing me. » A Webber-Vettel duel at Red Bull this season? There is no doubt that if the Australian is hungry for victories, the young German will not give in.
