Mark Webber

Mark Webber is an Australian Formula 1 driver for Red Bull Racing. He was born in Queanbeyan in New South Wales on 27 August, 1976 and moved to the United Kingdom in 1995 to pursue a career in motorsport, making his debut at the Australian Grand Prix in 2002. Webber moved to Red Bull racing in 2007 to team up with David Coulthard. In 2009 he broke his leg in a cycling accident and started the season with a steal rod in his leg. Despite the injury he still managed to earn his maiden win in Germany that year. In 2010 Webber finished first at Silverstone to win the British Grand Prix, eclipsing team-mate Sebastian Vettel.
