Webber Hoping for Points Finish

Mark Webber is hoping for a points finish at tomorrow's Brazilian Grand Prix to thank his Jaguar team in his final race for them.

Mark Webber is hoping for a points finish at tomorrow's Brazilian Grand Prix to thank his Jaguar team in his final race for them.

Webber will leave the struggling squad, up for sale since last month, to drive for the Williams team next season. The Australian driver today qualified in 12th position and he is hoping the tough Brazilian race will allow him to finish in the points.

"My first qualifying was not ideal as I felt that there was more to be extracted from the car and it needed a bit of fine-tuning," said Webber. "My second session was better and I was pleased with the balance and pace of the car during the lap.

"I would perhaps have liked to have extracted a bit more from the last corner but it is easy to make a mistake there and lose much time so I did what I could and am overall pleased with my final positioning for tomorrow. Let's see what we can do to finish in the points and reward everyone involved with Jaguar Racing for all their hard work this year."

Webber finished ahead of his Austrian teammate Christian Klien, who was over half a second slower than the Australian.

"I did what I could to secure a good position on the grid and given our strategy going into tomorrow I am pleased with my final position of 15th," said Klien. "I have had a fantastic year with the team and I am will be doing what I can tomorrow to enjoy the race and give both the fans and the team something to cheer about."
