Mark Webber has contradicted Christian Horner’s claim that he will retire if he leaves Red Bull.<\/p>\n
Team boss Horner said recently that Australian Webber has “no desire” to switch to a rival camp as his current contract is set to expire at the end of 2011.<\/p>\n
The 34-year-old has had a difficult start to the new season but told La Stampa in Turin that he is confident of a surge in form.<\/p>\n
“When this championship ends my contract with Red Bull does as well,” Webber told the Italian newspaper.\u00a0 “But I don’t think it depends on the results; I want to win for me.<\/p>\n
“We’ll see,” added Webber.\u00a0 “If the team doesn’t want me any more, I will have to ask myself a question — hang up my helmet or change teams?”<\/p>\n
He admitted he has “flaws” but said his teammate and reigning world champion Sebastian Vettel does too.<\/p>\n
“I’m determined.\u00a0 Last year I fought for the title and I want to do it again.”<\/p>\n
As for Vettel, Webber answered: “Sebastian is very fast and he now has a good amount of experience.\u00a0 But he’s not unbeatable.<\/p>\n
“I prefer not to talk about his weaknesses, but we all have them,” he insisted.<\/p>\n
