    he should go try banger racing or stock cars, he'd be far more suited to that than F1, possibly the most over-rated and dirtiest driver in F1, has almost a 1:5 crash ratio, and a habit of blaming everyone else. The only reason he did so well last year was his 100% mechanical reliability, much is made about turkey, but he only lost 1 place and after watching all the replays I can't figure out how anyone missed the huge weave he did to cause it.

    So Massa to Red Bull, Vettel will have an easy TO chance. Rosberg to Ferrari, and Webber to Mercedes so he can beat the most overrated driver in the field

    I don't think Webber is happy at Red Bull, and probably the only thing stopping him from leaving the team is the dominance of his car. If he does find a new team for 2012, he can say goodbye to his dreams of winning the championship. Drivers want the best car, and I'm sure most of the drivers, even the team favourites would happily go to Red Bull if given the opportunity. Even I want to go Red Bull.

    When Red Bull gave him a competitive car, he started winning. There aren't many spaces in top teams. Webber needs to make the most of opportunities. He's unhappy, but the very fact that Newey designs his car should be enough to keep him at Red Bull.

    he said goodbye to any chance of a WDC when he span in Korea, he tried to take an opponent with him but only collected Rosberg instead. a poor and a dirty driver. No I don't like him.

    Miggins,

    Webber is quite aggressive and this often goes unnoticed...
    However, he is still a good driver despite being choking under pressure.

    Who would you like to see replace Webber at Red Bull?

    Kobayashi preferably, I'd like to see what he could do with a decent car, he always seems to be the best of the rest. anyone is better than that whiney 2 face though.

    Hmm… some harshness here. I'm very surprised Miggins.

    He is not 'The Chosen One' at Red Bull - not now or before. This is in no way a detraction from Vettel's achievements or the pedestal he has found with Horner, Mateschitz, Newey et al., but unlike most designated number twos, Webber is not one to keep his mouth shut.

    He is a very quick driver who, for whatever reason has missed his one shot at the title. And yes, there is some bitterness about the way he has been kicked about by Red Bull's senior management, who have not had similar gutsiness to tell him to his face. Perhaps it's not surprising that he may become disillusioned.
