!['Relaxed' Webber: I want to have no regrets http://motogp-f1-races.blogspot.com](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjxZNMxq49otUKFi4xsoq6d7GO7QE6OqqoGrK_HADGSjxa7zgl6yMhJIVcdiUjoWdeMGLoT365GrOnv3R5UHPZbQ4QQ0XX2K4HeY4AhChWjfqeGr4XzoLDRavzog_7egHlRee0rHvnK6Cg/s320/motogp-f1races-mark-webber.jpg)
Webber has arrived in the Far-Eastern city-state of Singapore for the third edition of the popular night race around the streets of Marina Bay with a slender five-point margin atop the standings over McLaren-Mercedes rival Lewis Hamilton, and with double F1 World Champion Fernando Alonso, Hamilton's team-mate and defending title-winner Jenson Button and his own Red Bull Racing team-mate – and bitter sparring partner – Sebastian Vettel all similarly well within striking-distance.
With a mere 24 points blanketing the crown-chasing quintet and 125 left up for grabs over the final five grands prix, it really is anybody's game – and whilst he might not have the prior experience of a title showdown unlike Hamilton, Alonso and Button, what Webber does have is a calm, cool, measured approach that could just pay dividends by the time the F1 circus reaches Abu Dhabi in mid-November.
The Australian acknowledges that he is not immune to the pressure of being the hunted – just as his pursuers are not immune to the pressure of having to try and chase him down and overhaul him – but he is confident of being able to manage that pressure, despite finding himself in an advantageous position for the first time during his nine-year career at the highest level, a situation that he acknowledges is 'uncharted territory' for both himself and Red Bull
