Championship leader Mark Webber heads to the classic Spa-Francorchamps circuit with the hope of maintaining his advantage this weekend. However, no less than five drivers can leave the Ardennes venue at the top of the standings.
Having capitalised from a mistake by Red Bull team-mate Sebastian Vettel before delivering a string of superb laps in the Hungarian Grand Prix earlier this month, Webber retook leadership of the World Championship and is now ready to return after three weekends off.
“The most important thing for me during the break is to stay away from planes and hotels, as the last part of the championship includes plenty of those,” said the Australian. “The break helps the drivers get refreshed, away from the travel and the hotels – it’s not the driving that makes us tired.
“I don’t think there is a driver on the grid that doesn’t look forward to Spa, it’s an incredible circuit to drive on. I expect we can do well there; whether it’s as well as I did in Budapest is a question for everyone, but I know our team is ready.”
