F1 » Webber justifies RBR faith – and proves cynics wrong

i readily confess to being one of those cynics (and still am!) but today webber drove a good race apart from his brainfade at the first corner. that was a deliberate swerve and possibly deserved a stop and go, rather than a drive through. he COULD have taken half the field out with that move. seb has made webber raise his game, but he is still not championship material.

How can he be championship material with one win and one pole in seven and a half years of FI racing.
but yes today he drove a good race.

Should we have a running bet as to how many days (hours?) it will be before Paul Stoddart is interviewed in which he mentions how instrumental he (Stoddart) was in bringing Webber to F1, how he immediately spotted his talent, he had no doubt, webber can be champ, bla bla bla?

and yet another boring race with no overtaking. why don't they just scrap such boring tracks from the calendar.

It might be a boring race but sure I am happy that Webber still have the energy to win his first ever F1 win. Congratulation Webber!

There is no way on earth that King Michael Schumacher would have got a drive through penalty for that move in the first corner if he was still driving for Ferrari.

Stitcho - you have obviously never seen any of the races where Schumacher got a penalty. Usually got clobbered for tiny things which weren't his fault. True that.

congrats to mark and red bull he is fantastic profesional and a credit to f1! like button he has never been in a winning car but this is his time to notch up a couple of gp wins that rbr has come on leaps and bounds since last year its gonna be a close finish!!

but as a button fan i hope its not

absolutely brilliant for mark,like bowski said,he's never been in a winning car,but he's always given 110%.congratulations mark,you proudly join many other aussie motorsport heros

@the coloured chap who has some wheels - that's a bit harsh that comment.
