Happy Webber Targeting Points Finish

Australian Mark Webber is looking to score points in tomorrow's Belgian Grand Prix after a promising qualifying performance.

Australian Mark Webber is looking to score points in tomorrow's Belgian Grand Prix after a promising qualifying performance.

Jaguar driver Webber will start tomorrow's race from seventh place after a strong showing which saw him stay at the top of the timesheets for a considerable part of the session. The Australian was one of the drivers who decided to use full wet weather tyres for his flying lap and he was pleased with how things turned out.

"It was still raining when I headed out and we took the decision to be on full-wets," said Webber. "The track can be tricky to master in these conditions but I am pleased with where we have ended up. Seventh on the grid for tomorrow's race is good news for us and of course now we are focusing on the race and our goal to finish in the points.

"All the cars are very reliable at the stage on the calendar and the fight for points is not easy. However, we have a good solid package in the R5 and we are well-prepared for tomorrow so I am looking forward to getting out there and racing."

Webber's teammate Christian Klien finished in 13th position, the Austrian lamenting the lack of running this morning.

"I was hoping to get some more running completed this morning and I was certainly disappointed with only having the time to do six laps," said Klien. "My first qualifying session this afternoon was good but going into the second session the rain started again when I headed out and I was probably pushing too hard as well.

"Although 13th on the grid is still a good points fighting place and given the complexity of this track I have no doubt that there will be attrition. I will be looking to make the most of any opportunity to make my way up the grid and I am certainly excited about the race."
