Webber joy at maiden victory

AUSTRALIAN Mark Webber finally savoured the sweet taste of Formula One success, the first Down Under driver to win since Alan Jones at Las Vegas in October 1981.

There was no doubting just how much his maiden win meant to him as an Australian.

“It was very, very important for me because not many Australian drivers have reached Formula One, and there are even fewer who have been successful,” remarked Webber.
