Webber: No Decision on Future Yet

Minardi driver Mark Webber said on Thursday that no decision has been made on his future, despite reports linking him with a drive for Jaguar Racing next season.

Minardi driver Mark Webber said on Thursday that no decision has been made on his future, despite reports linking him with a drive for Jaguar Racing next season.

Webber, who spent the Formula One break in his homeland in Australia, said on the eve of the Hungarian Grand Prix that teams are interested in him but insisted no decision has been finalised yet.

"Hopefully I will be here," Webber said when asked about his future. "It has been a good solid season for me so far and the team has done a really good job. I have had a reliable little car and it has been a great little season for me.

"What happens next year, we haven't decided yet. (There are) not as many (options) as you would probably read about, but it only needs to be one."

Webber backed new Minardi teammate Anthony Davidson, who will replace Alex Yoong for the next two races, to produce an impressive display at the Hungaroring. And the Australian admitted that it will be good for him to have somebody of BAR test driver Davidson's quality to compare himself against.

"He has done a lot of laps with BAR in testing so that is a positive thing," Webber said. "You do your Formula Threes, your Formula 3000s and all that sort of stuff, but F1 testing is a good way for you to get a feel for what goes on, especially on a Grand Prix weekend. So that is a good thing for him to have up his sleeve.

"It was getting quite frustrating for the team, obviously Alex having some problems in qualifying again, so it is good that he (Davidson) should comfortably, obviously, qualify and it will be nice to have someone to be able to compare a bit more stuff with."
