Red Bull Team Principal Christian Horner has dismissed speculation that Mark Webber is set to join Ferrari next season.
Rumour has been rife in the paddock recently that the Australian
was set to replace Felipe Massa at the Italian team on a short-term deal
in 2013.
It was speculated that the 35-year-old would end his career with the
Scuderia before making way for Sauber's Sergio Perez, who is part of
Ferrari's driver academy, in 2014 or 2015.
However Horner says he sees no reason for Webber to leave a Red Bull team he is currently happy with.
"Every spring seems to be a reciprocal thing that Mark is going to Ferrari," Horner told Autosport.
"He is not wearing red overalls. I think it is inevitable, almost
every driver in the pitlane has been linked alongside Fernando [Alonso]
next year, but we are focused on ourselves.
"Mark enjoys being within the team, he is happy here and we are happy
with him. At the relevant time later in the year we will sit down and
talk about the future as we have done in previous seasons.
"It's something we will talk about later in the year. I'm not aware
of any discussion. I think Mark is happy where he is, he is in a strong
position here, but inevitably it's part of this business that there is
speculation."
