Mark Webber appears headed for a new Red Bull contract.<\/p>\n
The Australian, who signed only a one-year deal prior to the 2012 season, has been linked with a move to Ferrari.<\/p>\n
“That’s the way it is with them (Red Bull),” he told Brazil’s O Estado de S.Paulo newspaper.<\/p>\n
“All I can say is that I have started the last few years without a job for the next championship.”<\/p>\n
When asked specifically if the Ferrari rumours are true, the 35-year-old told O Estado de S.Paulo newspaper recently: “No.<\/p>\n
“Ferrari will need eight cars next year to fit all the drivers who are going to replace Felipe,” he smiled.<\/p>\n
Dr Helmut Marko, who is Red Bull team owner Dietrich Mateschitz’s right-hand man on F1 matters, hinted that Webber is set to be retained.<\/p>\n
“He has indicated to us that he has the necessary motivation and wants to keep going,” the Austrian told Sport Bild.<\/p>\n
“We know where we stand with him, and he knows where he stands with us.”<\/p>\n
