Webber hangs up his gloves

Post by 23e Heure »

It was great watching him flick the vees at the F1 circus, and move to Porsche with their LMP1 program.

Looks like he'll not add a Le Mans winner's trophy to his cabinet though :(

Sad news - but he's been great waving the WEC flag. Good to see that he will remain a Porsche ambassador.

Seems like a top bloke. I think he is going at the right time. For all his media attention he wasn't the quickest in the #1 car.

It would be great if Button stepped in for year? However, I'm not sure that would sit well with Honda/Mclaren
