One more lap and he would have been second.

I liked his comment "maybe I shouldn't bother with Q3 and just save my tyres..."

not sure about more or less Q3 but no burning tyres in it .... rubber smoke taste foul!

One more lap would have been awesome.. I would have loved to see Mark stick it up the inside of Seb and finish ahead of him..

Definately got what they asked for from Pirelli. The different rates of tyre wear certainly make for better racing/tactics and viewing. Will be good to see how Webber goes if they ever sort out his KERS.

They've got just over 2 weeks to get the bloody KERS sorted on Webber's car.
If they can manage this then he's in for a real shot at winning Turkey if the team strategist pull off another amazing miracle and provided he drives as good as he did in China.

Always been a major fan of Webber and have always shook my head when people say he can't drive. I'm sorry, but he's a million times better than Vettel amongst the pack. Vettel can only drive well when he has no one ahead of him. To come 3rd, from 18th, with faulty KERS is nothing short of amazing.

Legend indeed.

yeew!

I'm seriously hoping they ditch KERS for Webber. Replace the system with carefully placed ballast and be done with it. The beauty of it is it allows Webber to focus on the job of racing. Not having to wonder if his car will perform leading up to the race.

The added benefit is braking. When the KERS fails the braking is affected on his setup. Such is the nature of kinetic recovery designs. Bad braking going into corners means harder acceleration is required coming out...which means he has to flog the guts out of his car to keep up. Which he does REALLY well. The added downside is tire wear which became evident in the Malaysian GP. Webber was constantly in the pits burning through tires just to keep pace.

Give him a 'simple' car, with good weight distribution, working brakes, a sound tire strategy and watch him rape the grid.
