Mark Webber has broken a leg following a road accident during his annual Mark Webber Pure Tasmania Challenge, a charity event.
Webber has had surgery on the leg and a pin inserted. The accident happened near Port Arthur where Webber’s mountain bike was in collision with a four wheel drive car.
On behalf of the F1 Fanatic community I wish Mark Webber a speedy recovery and I’m sure everyone else does too.

“Sh*t Happens. But mainly to Mark Webber”
Pretty sums up Webbo’s luck. You have to wonder what he done wrong in a past-life or something to warrant everything that goes wrong in his career!
I’m sure he’ll be up-and-running and firing on all cylinders by Melbourne next year.

He’s pretty lucky to have only suffered a broken leg really.

Red Bull have said they expect him to be fully fit in time of the start of next year’s season.
