Horner: It’d be best if Webber avoided bikes

Red Bull team principal Christian Horner says he’s disappointed Mark Webber never shared the news that he’d injured his shoulder in a cycling accident.

The Australian driver revealed in his new book that he drove in the last four races of the season with a fractured shoulder, after he fell of his bike prior to the Japanese GP.

He decided to keep the injury a secret from everyone but his trainer, Roger Cleary and FIA doctor, Gary Hartstein.

“I didn’t even know about the book, let alone the shoulder,” Horner told the Telegraph Sport. “It is obviously disappointing that Mark said nothing.”

The injury didn’t seem to effect Webber’s performance, according to Horner, although Webber did lead the championship up until the injury, before dropping into third come Abu Dhabi.

“It was an injury that did not appear to have any effect on his performance but all the same it would have been nice to know about it,” added Horner.

When quizzed on whether Webber would be banned from bikes in the future, this being his second accident in three years, the 37-year-old said it’d be best if he avoided them.

“Our drivers have an obligation to make sure they are fit. It seems bikes don’t agree with Mark so maybe it would be better if he stayed away from them.”
