    The bloke is a walking accident... seriously, when he first joined Williams he broke his ribs, he broke most of his body in the lead up to last season, then broke his shoulder or arm or whatever it was again this year. Dude!

    Clearly the reason he didn't want to let the team know was because they would have just said "oh well too injured to drive!" which would have made the whole "who should we support for the championship" debate convieniantly null and void.

    Was he being paranoid? Probably, he really should have told someone, but I guess he just didn't want to take the risk of the team benching him.

    Are you suggesting that RBR may have engineered the 'accident'....

    I love the irony that Marks book in which he reveals his injury is called 'Up Front' when that was the last thing he was with his team.

Theres no point trying to find excuses though and I'm sure Mark wouldn't want this card played.
    THE pre-race injection helped,

    You don't know that, so don't state it as if it were fact.

    The injections were cleared with the F1 doctor Gary Hartstein, so any suggestion that they were illegal or performance enhancing should be dismissed as gibberish.

    The only white line Webber needed to avoid was the slippery one in Korea.

    The injections were cleared by an F1 doctor, so please, enough with the unsubstantiated conjecture. He ran wide and crashed as a result.

    I think if they read your posts they would have a pretty good idea.
