This is a day many have been expecting. Laddies and Gentlemen drivers, it is now official: Mark Webber has signed with Red Bull Racing for the 2012 season.
As we all know, Webber has been is the shadow of prodigious Vettel and there have been many that said the Austrian racer will look for success somewhere else next year. Throughout the past season, the two parts have had multiple conflicts, but it seems like they're willing to put everything behind and aim for the best in next year's season.
"I want to continue racing at the top in Formula One so it's a no-brainer to remain at Red Bull Racing for another year. My motivation to achieve the best results possible both for myself and the team is still very high," Webber said.
A quick look on the current F1 statistics shows us that Vettel holds second place, so the stakes for next year are high to say the least. We'll remind you that the FIA has recently confirmed the final version of the 2012 F1 calendar, so you now know what Vettel will have to "go through".
"When we sat down and started talking about 2012, it was immediately obvious that Mark and the team wanted to continue our successful relationship. This meant agreeing an extension for 2012 was very straightforward," Christian Horner, the team's manager, said.
