How Webber turned into the man of the moment
Many expected Mark Webber to play second fiddle to Sebastian Vettel this season, but the Australian has become the man to beat after his back-to-back wins. Adam Cooper analyses how Webber dominated the F1 week

But you only need two cars to make a race, and the battle between Webber and Sebastian Vettel promises to be a fascinating one as the season unfolds.
