NEWS STORY

With the media still looking for signs of disharmony in the Red Bull camp, Mark Webber says he has no regrets over his "number two" outburst at the end of the British Grand Prix.

As a weekend clouded in controversy and speculation reached its climax, moments after taking the chequered flag, Webber uttered a brief comment over the team radio that effectively brought the whole thing out into the open. With the words, "not bad for a number two", the Austrian outfit founds its 'dirty laundry' very much in the public gaze.

However, speaking ahead of this weekend's race, Webber said he didn't regret his outburst.

"I don't have any regrets, no," said the Australian. "Things happen in the heat of the moment that happen.

"Maybe I should have put some colourful language either side of my radio transmission because maybe it would never have got run," he continued. "Obviously, I was polite and it did get run and a few extra people heard what I had to say."

Aware that he and his team will be under intense scrutiny from here on, Webber was keen to play down talk of bad blood between he and his teammate.

"It wasn't a huge drama at the last race," he said. "I don't have any problems with Sebastian. What happened at Silverstone was nothing of Seb's doing. "In the end we are a very strong team, let me tell you. Christian and I had a good discussion about things, which wasn't too difficult, and here we are ready to go. German Grand Prix, looking forward to it. It was a unique situation, something we learnt from and we will be going forward very aggressively from here on."
