Great effort, Mark, but how sad is it that drivers can be 2 sec a lap quicker, yet not able to overtake! Spec rules have to change.
Good luck in Sepang.

good race rb pitwall loused up a bit i wish people would stop with the blue flag for the ferraris though they were racing for postion they had not been lapped its for other drivers to try and get past them if they can

I agree RB strategy was poor, even more so when you consider that this is your home event.
Also the Blue Flags should have been out on the Ferrari’s.
Great effort though Mark and thanks for the wave at Turn Three.

mark,one of your best drives, shame about the result but it was great to watch.lets get back on the podium in Malaysia, good luck.

With Hamilton going deep around the outside to find clear air under brakes and he found a few more metres past your inside apex to pull up while in your blind spot. Could it an RBR option if it is a higher speed corner even if you’re unloaded just before you start making the dive. Better you than me Mr! But you’re our man.

Bad luck on the day. Nothing really went right for you but I am sure this will just firer you up to do better and better as the year goes on!
I can see a win around the corner for you!

You drove a fantastic race Mark and definitely blew the cobwebs away that were left during Bahrain!…Here’s to seeing you spraying the sparkling grape juice from the top step in Malaysia!!

That was a good attempt on your part. It’s a pitty your crew always seem to use the wrong stratergy. I’ve always thought you to be a better driver in the wet than most of the field, so I’m scratching my head why you say the rain at the grid made the race a lottery ? Maybe for the other places, but I believe it would of been a race between yourself and Schumacher. Better luck next time….

I think that the problem of all was the first pit stop. Mark wanted to think well ahead of his audience. a little too impetuous …

Mark, your driving was brilliant! If anything i’d have liked to see a more agressive attempt to pass Hamilton earlier. If the wet had have returned (and made passing possible) you’d still have had a chance to win. Congrats on a very exciting race!

Maybe they should have a look at the blue flag rule and see if they can make amendments to it to ensure faster cars get passed. (Perhaps the lead car has to prove it can put in a quicker lap than the last couple it took for the follower to catch up…sigh…I can only hope.)

Mr Webber lets look at the positives! The motor held together, you got some points, the lead point scorer isn’t out of sight, you got FTD, the media circus is over, and Malaysia coming up. You have put your car on the front row there before so head down, bum up!

Thanks for being so competitive this past year and for making a go of this last race – it put some nice attendance figures into the Melb GP for a change.

You and Lewis had to do something considering your cars were almost two seconds faster than Alonso. Maybe they should enforce the blue flag rule given the previous laps speed differential? Hehe, we can only hope.

Front row at Malaysia and pit first. I am barracking for you as always.

Bad luck mark was dissapointing outcome but was thrilling watching you drive better luck for the rest of the year look forward to see you on the podium .Glenn from greensborough

Good fight-bloody Melbourne weather!!The pressure was incredible and i think it got you a bit!!-Dont listen to D Beaties crack about Vettel “giveing you the race” when he went off,was a stupid comment,2010 can be yours..

Mate, you drove a great, aggressive race. Red Bull strategy let you down !
