One thing that has always struck me about Mark Webber is that he seems to have more difficulty than most drivers actually staying in the groove for the length of a season. If you look at his results, on the whole, after a race win he generally falls back down the field within the next couple of races or on the back of a 8th, 9th or 10th finish he will then go on to win the next race. I think it's more than just the way things are with the cars and tyres of the last couple of years. To some extent I would say that Jenson Button is a similar type of driver who is up at certain tracks at certain times and down the next.
Back to Mark though, when he's in the groove as shown by todays pole, he is trully a quick driver. Putting the car ahead of Vettel proves that. But what is it about Mark that means he can't do it week in week out? Is it a case of having the right sort of motivation? And what other drivers do you think have the same problem? Any thoughts?
