Was he any good at laying driveways?

[Bobcock]

Any other driver would be upset that the Red Bull Team had Vettel as their "first" driver

He was and made it quite clear at times.....

[rickschoppers]

Yes, you are right he was upset. What I meant was other drivers would have made an even bigger issue of it, which is a credit to Webber.

100,000 onlookers experience Formula One racing exhibition on Bangkok's Rajdamnoen Avenue
วันเสาร์ ที่ 18 ธ.ค. 2553



BANGKOK, Dec 18 - Over 100,000 fans experienced a Formula One car racing (F1) demonstration on Rajdamnoen Avenue Saturday afternoon as part of the celebrations for HM the King's 84th birthday in 2011 in the "Street of Kings Rajdamnoen Red Bull Bangkok 2010" show.

Her Royal Highness Princess Chulabhorn presided over the driving exhibition ceremony on Bangkok's Ratchadamnoen Avenue with huge crowds lining road.

Australian Red Bull racer Mark Webber, who finished third in the world championship this year, drove his RB26-Renault RS27 over a circuit running from Phan Fa Bridge (near the Golden Mount) towards the Democracy Monument and finishing at Kok Wua Intersection.

The huge crowd roared enthusiastic support along the streets when veteran driver Webber left the pit garage as the four-lap course got under way.

When the race finished, he left the car and waved a Thai flag so as to announce that the Red Bull Racing Formula One Team originated from Thailand's 'Red Bull' energy drink. And he greeted the crowd with a traditional 'wai', bringing his palms together, and raising them in salute to the gathered thousands.

Red Bull and the Bangkok Metropolitan Administration (BMA) jointly organised the event consisting of three parts.

In the first part, spectators enjoyed a jazz parade to honour the monarch, led by Thailand's renowned jazz musician Koh Mr Saxman, followed by the Red Bull Best Wishes to the King where Thai heartthrobs "Dome" Pakorn Lam and Ananda Everingham joined the event.

The third event was a parade to honour His Majesty the King led by Mr Webber and leading Thai actresses "Aum" Patcharapa Chaichua and "Ploy" Chermarn Boonyasak, followed by a show by Red Bull Drift Team Thailand, led by 'Kiki' Sak Nana, before the racing exhibition started.

The unique event was free of charge. After the race, the RB26-Renault RS27 was taken to be on display at Bangkok's Central Chidlom's Morakot parking zone through Sunday.

Red Bull Beverage managing director Saravudh Yoovidhya earlier said the exhibition is part of the celebrations of the King's 84th birthday and Red Bull Racing's drivers' and constructors' world titles.

Mr Webber's team-mate Sebastian Vettel won the championship, while Red Bull itself won the Constructor's Championship.

You mean like Barrachello didn't for years and years and years at Ferrari?

[rickschoppers]

What, are trying to pick a fight or something? Webber has been very controlled with respect to how the team, in general, placed him second as a driver. You can probably find several similar examples in the past, and that is fine. I still think Webber controlled himself and continues to be a great respresentative of F1. Are you anit-Webber or something? What exactly is your point?

met him,worked for him

naa, but he make a mean cup of tea

[Butterfly]

quite amazing that the car didn't slide into the crowd, with all the Thai style security, it was a disaster waiting to happen

in the first video, it seems like he was going to hit some booth where some officials were standing.

Don't limit it to Webber, I'm Anti-Australians.....
