Mark Webber leaving F1 at end of this Season

Postby mnrolvr » Sat 29 Jun, 2013 11:18 am

News was out a couple of days ago that Mark is leaving F1 for the Le Mans Sports Car series spearheading the new/revamped Porsche Factory Team.

Hopefully Ricciardo takes his place in the Infinity Red Bull team but they are seriously looking at Raikkonen (which would be a great choice and a good laugh) or Ricciardo's team mate Jean Eric Vergne (who is out driving him at the moment).

Good luck in the new venture Mark and I hope that you don't "fly" like you did in the Mercedes....

Yes, good luck to Mark, unfortunately, by the time he had a really competitive car, Vettel came into the team.

I like the boy but he never really made it did he? Anyway good luck to him Porsche will only be better for him signing.

IMO - Jack Brabham (1), Jones (2), Webber (3) in formula 1.

As for everything else - BROCK (1) & daylight second.

It's officially official even though Mark Webber let the cat out of the bag in Belgium....

Daniel Ricciardo is his RBR replacement alongside Herr Vettel next year...great for Australia and great for the kid. At least I can still wear the RBR F1 shirt with some Aussie pride, probably still would if Raikkonen was the other driver and Daniel stayed at Torro Rosso but this is great, hope he gets to show his talent...
