Porsche has refused to deny rumours it is lining up
Mark Webber to lead its charge with a new Le Mans prototype next year. Amid the 'Multi-21' affair and claims the Australian's place is now untenable alongside
Sebastian Vettel at Red Bull, German newspaper Bild reported that the 36-year-old and Porsche have "already been in contact" regarding a 2014 deal.
Asked about the Webber rumours, a spokesman for the carmaker told SID news agency: "Porsche already has a squad of internationally successful works drivers. This is a very good basis for the assignment of the corresponding (Le Mans) cockpits. Whether and to what extent additional drivers are added will be decided at a later date," spokesman Oliver Hilger added. (GMM)
