Red Bull: no points in Valencia
di F1 editorial team23 August, 2009
MARK WEBBER, Pos 9
"No points for us today, the first time in a long time. The fact is that we weren't fast enough today, it was a difficult race. I was fighting all weekend and I think I could have got a better result. We were a bit unlucky at the pitstop, so it wasn't a good day for us. We'll make up for it in Spa."
SEBASTIAN VETTEL, retired
"The biggest problem today was the first pit stop, we weren't able to refuel the car, we were lucky to make a second stop but the race was already lost at that point. After that I had a engine problem and I was forced to retire. In terms of the championship, I will fight until the end, obviously it's not nice when you retire and your rivals score points."
