I think Webber’s comment was taken out of context. He later clarified this by saying he will of course help the team IF he is in a position to do so. His opinion was that such a situation will probably not arise so all he can do is drive as good a race for himself as possible…. and if the situation does arise he will do what he can to help the team.

Don’t think there’s any truth in the rumour of a fallout within the RBR team.

Thought that it was Webber and Christian Horner, with Red Bull providing some backing?

Keith,

I think the rumors about Red Bull are that they would actually just flat dump Webber to get Raikkonen over driver preference. Webber also made a comment yesterday about Raikkonen looking for a ride, but that Red Bull already has its two drivers.

Mark’s a sharp guy, and while he’s very much a straight talker, he also knows a thing or two about politics. It’s pretty clear that he’s sending a message to the leadership of Red Bull that he’s none too pleased at them at the moment.

Webber and Red Bull have just set up a GP3 team together. Would they really have done that if they were contemplating a split?

Nice to hear Zanardi state what we pretty much knew or decided to ignore (depending on your biases). And that guy knows more than most what a “bas**rd” fate can be.

Now WHY would anyone call into question the integrity of the FIA??….mmmmm…
Looks like Webber has drawn a line in the sand, obviously his garage repair bill will have no influence on the team’s decision on whether to keep him or…not!
Alonso has more or less been told by his new teamchum that he has his best interests at heart…lol.
Stop trying to make lewis feel good Alex…….

Wow, Webber earned a huge chunck of respect from me. I really like his sincerity, a rare treat in F1 nowadays.
