It was in early May that Webber cast doubts on his future, admitting a decision on whether he continues would be down to how he felt about his situation. Although the 34-year-old Australian has endured a difficult start to the campaign, trailing team-mate Sebastian Vettel by 64 points, whatever was initially plaguing him has since disappeared. Speaking ahead of this weekend's Canadian Grand Prix, Horner said: "Mark's made it clear he wants to drive next year."
Horner, however, is so far refusing to concede whether the team want to retain Webber, who is currently on a rolling contract. "With regard to points, Mark has had the best start to a campaign in his career in Formula One to date," said Horner, bettering his haul from the first six races of last season by a point.
