Ogier escapes penalty for route error

No action will be taken against Sebastien Ogier following his wrong route on the way into the service park on Rally Mexico on Friday. AUTOSPORT has received unofficial confirmation from the organisers of the Leon-based event that the clerk of the course is happy that there need be no penalty for the Citroen driver, who accidentally drove straight into the midday service area when he was supposed to head for a regroup first.

Webber: I?ll finish career at Red Bull

Mark Webber thinks he will see out his Formula 1 career at Red Bull Racing - after making it clear that he is fully focused on a long-term future with the reigning champions. During a sometimes tumultuous 2010 campaign, there was widespread speculation that the Australian could choose to turn his back on the sport. However, speaking ahead of the new season, a fired up Webber said there was no reason for him not to look at extending his spell in F1 - and that meant staying with Red Bull Racing.
