Formula One world championship leader Mark Webber believes it is too early to start thinking about winning the title despite having a 14-point lead with only three races left.
The main rivals to the Red Bull driver are his teammate Sebastian Vettel and Ferrari’s Fernando Alonso, who are tied for second in the standings.
McLaren pair Lewis Hamilton and reigning champion Jenson Button are also still in contention for the crown.
The Australian driver said: “It’s ridiculous to start calculating things because a lot of things can happen.”
“The (points) gap has been edging away, the right way in the last few races. I need to try to do that. Then just keep doing our best, that’s the most important thing. I’m doing my best and then hopefully the result will take care of itself.”
Alonso has made a big impression in his first season with Ferrari and will take away the positives even if he cannot land the title for the third time.
“In terms of happiness, in terms of motivation, driving, the team itself, it’s the best one. Obviously it will be nice to become champion this year but even if we cannot do it, I will anyway have great, great memories of 2010.” CNN International
Vettel claims that he will approach the race in Yeongam the same way he approached the one in Suzuka, saying it is opportune only to take risks in the decisive Grand Prix in Abu Dhabi.
“I am in Asia for I decided to stay here between the Japanese and Korean GPs. This is best for my body, as the time zone difference can weaken me. I will start to take risks in the end of the season, but not in South Korea. Sometimes, small things can be the difference between winning or loosing. Is important the prepare for the race the best way we can and I am preparing just like I did for the last race,” said the German. Mibz
