Mark Webber was in positive mood after the Turkish Grand Prix, as the Aussie equalled his points total from 2007 after just five races.
The 31-year-old finished seventh around the challenging Istanbul Park circuit to mark his fourth straight points finish of the 2008 campaign, leaving him sitting in a strong seventh position in the drivers' table. Though he may have scored all ten of
Red Bull Racing's points to-date this year, the man from New South Wales keen to ink a new contract with the Milton Keynes-based outfit [see separate story

I'm happy to get two points, Webber reflected after taking the chequered flag just over ten seconds behind the similarly-powered
Fernando Alonso in the
Renault, having chased the Spaniard race-long after losing out at the start.
It wasn't the most exciting race; I was just trying to hold on to Fernando, which wasn't easy as he was a bit too strong for us today. It would have been nice to be able to fight him a little bit more. I was cruising a little in the last stint, as [Nico] Rosberg wasn't a threat.
Getting more points is good for the team especially after the way they turned my car around after my shunt on Friday but we're not satisfied with getting just points now. We want to get more, but I have the same number of points that I had in total last year, so we're doing okay.
