The Aussie was one of the most committed and popular drivers F1 has ever seen. Relive some of his finest moments on a race track. For more F1® videos, visit www.Formula1.com Follow F1®: / f1 / formula1 / f1 / formula1 / f1 #F1
@@Luca33600 is a lie, according to Newey's book. Mark was given the updated front wing that race in practice and he hated it and reverted back to the old configuration. Seb tried that new wing and felt comfortable and hence ran it in the race. Then Mark played the media game and blamed the team for making him a no 2. I am surprised by F1 official channel promoting a false narrative which has been refuted by all the people in the know by now.

@@fatfrankthepeteacher4535 so fun mate! Congrats! How much did they pay you to create this poem? So original and well written, by an absolutely not biased troll...🙄
Such an underrated driver. So many people who only saw him at the end of his career don't realise some of the great drives he had at the start of his career. The guy qualified P2 with a Jaguar ffs 😂. Was unlucky to have not had a better car before Red Bull at the end of his career
Totally this. The trouble was he should have had that better car when he moved to Williams - but the move was a distaster. If he'd gone to Renault he'd have immediately entered a title fight at the age of 28. The move to Williams set his career back four years.
@@chamindujanith6337 He did, he was at BMW Sauber for a while and he had nowhere near enough outright pace to win races. There's a reason Ron Dennis snubbed him for Raikkonen.
I was so emotionally invested in the 2010 season. It was my first season watching the sport. I don’t think I smiled for three days after the Korean GP that year

his poor starts off the grid were very costly and it was always a pain to see him qualify in the top 5 only to drop 3 or 4 positions before the first corner
The 2007 Japanese GP was looking like Webber's first win. He had pace on Hamilton before the safety car came out and closed the gap. Hamilton was playing some games behind the safety car, swerving and braking. This is what lead to Vettel crashing into the back of Webber. It took Webber another two years to grab his first victory.
If someone runs up the back of you, they're much more to blame than someone running in front of you. Not the last time that Vettel would ruin Webber's race.
Look at this clown above me and that clown "EL DRIVER" below in comments... You don't go to a championship final as a main title contender and neither do you win 4 titles by being an average driver... For comparison , the last 2 teammates who entered the finale as title challengers were Lewis Hamilton and Nico Rosberg... And "El driver" below is a bigger clown than kiki sama...
My heart sank that night he spun in Korea. Always felt like he never recovered from that moment and Abu Dhabi. On his day amazing, more importantly though always great to watch from race craft to jokes. Thank go he still on tv
What an incredible driver he was! That race in Germany 2009 is the only race he would never forget. I wish Mark Webber was an F1 champion, but he came close of doing that in 2010. Plus, he was not bad for a #2 driver.
Radio messages from maiden f1 victories (and mostly championships) are giving me chills. Absolutely beautiful to hear, Webber's message isn't any different, a sigh of relief and an explosion of emotion when he crossed that line
That celebration from Nurburgring 2007 will always bring tears to my eyes. First Aussie winner since Alan Jones in 1981, and while he wasn't the outright best, he's a role model in my eyes.
This is for the Vettel haters who threw Webber’s achievements under the rug in order to diminish his greatness. He is one of the kind who has the determination of Nando and sometimes the raw speed of Vettel. He is a monster in his own right
People watching 2021 should know that , It's not a joke to enter as a main title contender in the final race. That too with 3 other contenders. Bottas was never able to do it , Perez might never be able to do it , but somehow these drivers are considered better
What makes Webber & Vettel different is both of them weren't ready to give an inch of benefit to the other 😅 . A quality which we can't see in today's big teams who employees a second driver just to protect their main driver from the pack and crash into their championship rivals when needed .
It’s things like this that make me appreciate the sport. Showing the brilliance of its capable less celebrated drivers. A lot has to go right for a driver to win the chip and for mark he definitely had the skill to win one
Mark was underrated The 2010 championship was between him and Alonso mostly until Vettel snatched it last race. No disrespect to Vettel but Webber deserved that championship
@@hishamhilal8332 RB got their strategy wrong that race... but who knew it would be so difficult to overtake there, given it was a brand new track at the time. With that massive straight, you'd think passing would have been fairly easy... but Webber ended up behind Petrov, Alonso covered him off (which many forget was because Webber was the championship leader going into that race, not Vettel) and the rest is history
It's funny how teams make cars as aerodynamic and producing as much grip as possible and yet Mark Webber seems to consistently be able to make them do backflips.
One of life's nice guys, a brilliant driver a fair racer and a lot of fun. Shame he never won the WC could have done if not for Vettel and could have won a lot more races
Always loved his first race & the sweet moment of the organisers letting Mark & Minardi on the podium after the main ceremony - it's something you probably would never see in the modern day but was just a beautiful moment I'm glad I got to see
not really , id argue vettel and alonso deserved it more . Alonso fought in the 2nd to 3rd quickest car whereas vettel although very inconsistent that year he lost 3 wins due to reliability - austrailia , bahrain and korea whereas mark lost 2 goodresults due to him just binning it
@@aaronanson6311 McLarens with better speed advantage were also in contention . Tbh even most redbull fans at the time never believed in Vettel becoming the champion 😅 . Yes there was a probability for Sebastian and Lewis . But everyone thought Alonso will be the winner , or Webber . Webber didn't produced his best in qualifying when it needed the most .
The pivotal moment was Spa. Webber quicker by 1 sec in mixed conditions then anybody else ... and then Horner says : "We need to change the setup approach for the car" ... that was it.

it still brings happy tears to my eyes whenever i rewatch the 2009 German GP race, as a fellow aussie i could never be more elated for Mark's first victory
I have always liked Webber. I always thought he did such an excellent job in jaguar and made me fall in love with F1. His win in Germany was outstanding and I must have watched that like 20 times. In Spain as well he dominated that race and blew them all away. He was always fast at Monaco and probs should have won at Belgium as he really had that track dialled in but unfortunately it never came.
Yeah. Some battle. Webber had his engine turned down and was told his team mate wouldn't attack. This allowed Vettel to close the gap and then jump Webber without warning. Disgraceful from Vettel.

i was too young and never really watched f1 until the first race of 2010. the year redbull started to dominate. and i remember that first race i chose at the age of 10 i wanted to cheer for webber, he is truly a driver who deserved and had the skill to be a world champion. locked behind a preferred and slightly better driver as a teammate, he never got to be one.. but he certainly deserved it. right place at the wrong time.
Those cars from the Braun GP and Redbull championship days are fantastic looking and sounding cars. They look fast just sitting still! Fantastic competitor Webber was in those RB cars, watching him battle it out with Seb, Lewis, Jenson and Fernando is absolutely fantastic.
@@chamindujanith6337 Less races and a tighter championship make for a HORRIBLE comparison... That's like comparing Schumacher's number of wins for Ferrari against Hamilton's for Mercedes. It's not fair for several reasons.
@@greatsageclok-roo9013 Compare points per race mate. And see who comes out better?😉 Bottas showed in 2019 that he can be champion/challenge for the title without Lewis Hamilton as teammate. Webber's inability to even get P2 in the championship with that car is inexcusable. And that puts him below Bottas.

What a legend, I had the pleasure of meeting him at the 2022 British GP, got a photo with him too, he was an absolute gentleman, no BS with him just a normal guy who happens to be an F1 legend..... Respect
Genuinely my favourite driver of all time, helped me fall in love with Formula One and Red Bull, with his insane grit on the course and hilarious wit off of it.
@@Airwolfr Fair enough but I dont really see how mark deserved a championship. he had 4 years where he couldve won but only put up a challenge one of those years.
This feels... late somehow but either way, Webber was more than worthy of a video like this at some point. A number 2 driver he may have been but there are many others in that camp that were both slower than him and less worthy of discussion.
I admire him a lot. He seems like a humble, nice guy. Definitely wasn't arrogant or cocky. His driving was surely high quality, if not championship winning. Never cowed down to the blatant bias towards Sebastian. Not bad for a no.2 driver! 😎❤️
@@rensvanampting234 Yes, Mark lead the Championship by 14 points with 3 races to go. And then he binned it. Just remember the Championship wouldn't even have been close without Seb retiring in South Korea when his engine gave up the ghost.
