Actually statistics is BS if you even watched the races. If you want to use Stats, I could equally say 2005 Heinfeld = 28 points, 2005 Webber = 36 points.Originally Posted by Petronas
The podium finishes is also unfair comparison due to following -
1) Malaysia 2005 = 'Third place was taken by Nick Heidfeld in the Williams. He had been trailing Alonso's team-mate Giancarlo Fisichella, and his own teammate Mark Webber who collided at the end of lap 35. Fisichella was clowing with worn tyres. Having been passed by the Australian (Webber), Fisichella attempted to retake the position on the inside heading into the final corner, but lost control on his worn tyres and spun into Webber's car.'
Result = Fisichella reprimanded. Unlucky Webber loses podium to Heinfeld.
2) Monaco 2005 - 'The following race in Monaco saw Webber take the first podium finish of his career, with third. On the rostrum however, Webber looked noticeably disappointed with the result after losing second to teammate Heidfeld due to the Williams team pitting Heidfeld before Webber, which caused Webber to lose time behind the slow Alonso. Webber had run ahead of Heidfeld all race long and would have been second had the team pitted them in regular sequence...'
3) European GP 2005 - Heidfeld qualified on pole yes but unlucky Webber had contact with Montoya. Besides, most of 2005 Webber outqualified Heidfeld anyway.
My point is, I said Webber was never beaten by a team mate.
Heidfeld did not beat Webber, as they were almost equaly with Webber will having the slight edge. And we all know how fast Quick Nick is anyway, so thats a very good comparison of Webber's skills.
