Webber sorry to be on the dirty side

Mark Webber admitted he was happy with his qualifying session in Hungary, but disappointed that he will start from the dirty side of the grid

The Red Bull driver will start tomorrow's race from eighth position after another strong run in qualifying, but an even grid number means he will have to do it from the very dusty right side.

"That was a pretty good qualifying session, quite straightforward," said Webber. "It would have been nice to have had a bit more pace in Q3, but Q2 and Q1 went well for us.

"I'm disappointed I'm on the wrong side of the grid, an odd number is always better, but we definitely have a chance to get something from where we are, so we'll see how we go tomorrow."

Teammate David Coulthard missed out on a top ten slot after falling to make it past Q2, the Scot saying he was losing time in all sectors.

"I was losing a little bit of time in each of the sectors and I couldn't deliver that last little bit of lap time because I was bringing the mid-corner speed too low," he said. "It's tough from thirteenth for sure, but the Hungarian race can be unpredictable, so let's see."
