Red Bull building new chassis for Webber

Updated



Red Bull Racing is building up a new chassis for Mark Webber after his backflip crash during last Sunday's European grand prix.

The Australian emerged unhurt from the frightening impact, which included a backwards somersault, a smash against an advertising hoarding whilst airborne, and a high speed final shunt into the tyre barrier.

The actual chassis was the one driven by Webber, 33, to a handful of pole positions and his wins in Barcelona and Monaco.

"It's been good to me," he said. "It was very safe, thank god."
