Jenson Button, practice

Nico Rosberg, qualifying

Heikki Kovalainen, Sergio Perez, 2013 Brazilian Grand Prix

Felipe Massa, 2013 Brazilian Grand Prix

Mark Webber, 2013 Brazilian Grand Prix
Mark Webber bowed out of F1 after 215 races with his 42nd podium finish. He savoured the drive back to the pits, taking his helmet off as he toured the track. After the race he returned to the podium with the Red Bull team to celebrate.
Renault V8 engine, 2013 Brazilian Grand Prix
There was one more goodbye to say after the race. Renault revved several of their V8 engines to screaming pitch including this one in the Caterham garage. Here’s a closer look at the engine glowing red-hot.

Really?
Is it just me that thinks that Webber without the helmet in the car looks slightly ridiculous? As if some punter in jeans, a t-shirt, and flip-flops just jumped in and took it for a joy-ride?

As a F1 fan and as a photographer I appreciate Webber’s unique opportunity for a one time gesture on his very last trip around the circuit in a live official F1 car and for it to be captured for posterity. Anyone can do doughnuts, but this was something that will not likely be duplicated any time soon and it was unexpected. He was living the dream! Anyways, your mileage may vary. :)

agreed, would be better though if it was actually focused on the car rather than the stands in the distance…
