Webber: I 'feel' like I'm Red Bull's No1

The fractious relationship between the two has hit the headlines all season, with Australian Webber being furious at his team favouring his young team-mate.

The two drivers crashed in Turkey when vying for the lead, and things got even worse at Silverstone when Webber had a front wing taken off his car and placed on Vettel's to help the German.

Despite this apparent clear signal that Vettel was the number one, Webber responded by winning the British Grand Prix, and took great delight in proclaiming "Not bad for a No. 2 driver" over his car radio as he crossed the line.

Webber has now proclaimed himself to be Red Bull's number one driver, and lifted the lid on the lack of a personal relationship between him and Vettel.

"We don't hang out," Webber told the Sydney Telegraph. "We work for the team and we work professionally.

"We have a big age difference so we didn't have much in common even before we began racing each other at this level.

"I don't know him at all away from the racetrack."

While Vettel has landed pole positions after pole position, he has struggled to turn those into wins, and trails Webber by 28 points in the Drivers' Championship.

Webber is second behind Lewis Hamilton, and he says that he is currently the number one ahead of the 23-year-old Vettel, who he warned could be out of a job if performances don't pick up.

"If you get creamed by your team-mate constantly then you won't be in this business long," Webber said.

"At this stage of my career and when you get somebody who is arguably or supposed to be world class on paper - in some people's eyes - you have to be on top of your game so you don't get steamrolled.

"You can be the No. 2 driver after a couple of races very easily. You have to be in there and it is a serious sport protecting your corner. I feel sensational in the team right now and I have rarely felt like a No. 2.

"I have had times when I have felt like I was a No. 2 and I reckon Seb has had times where he says, 'Oh, I am No. 2 now'.

"I feel like I am No. 1 at the moment, but it ebbs and flows."

Schumi: The best my car could achieve

The seven-time World Champion failed, for the fourth successive grand prix, to make it through to the qualifying shoot-out, finishing up in 12th place.

Schumacher, though, reckons that's the best he could have achieved as he struggled with the balance of his W01 throughout the weekend.

"I am obviously not very happy with our qualifying today but my position is probably what my car was giving me," Schumacher said.

"We did not have a perfect balance, especially in some corners where the car was a bit loose, but then we did not come here expecting to achieve a great performance.

"However the race will be long tomorrow and having been welcomed so nicely by all of my Italian fans, I obviously wish to at least grab some points for them."

His team-mate Nico Rosberg had a better afternoon as he qualified in seventh place, a second off the pace of the leading Ferrari of Fernando Aloonso.

"Seventh place is definitely the best performance that was possible for us today so both I and the team can be pleased with that. However we obviously want to be further up the grid so we shouldn't get too used to being happy with such results.

"In race trim, we are probably a little stronger than in qualifying, so I can hopefully gain a place or two tomorrow if something happens amongst the top six guys, and look to achieve some good points."

England Insists Rooney Scandal Is No Distraction

Paris - England was among a number of fancied sides which began the Euro 2012 qualifying campaign with handsome wins, but its trip to Switzerland on Monday came amid a tabloid storm surrounding Wayne Rooney.

The Manchester United striker played a key role in England’s 4-0 win at home to Bulgaria on Friday, but damaging newspaper revelations on Sunday alleged he frequented a prostitute while his wife, Coleen, was pregnant.

It comes at an inopportune time for coach Fabio Capello, who is trying to right the England ship after a disappointing World Cup, but James Milner says Rooney will not be affected by the scandal.

“I think you want the best players out on the field and he’s obviously one of them. He showed that the other night,” said the Manchester City midfielder. “He’s a top, top player and you want to put out the strongest team possible.”

England looked close to its impressive pre-World Cup form as it picked apart Bulgaria, but in Switzerland Capello and company face a team that has qualified for the last four major tournaments in succession.

There were few hiccups for the continent’s heavyweights, as the qualifying competition for the tournament to be jointly hosted by Ukraine and Poland began in earnest on Friday.

Spain won 4-0 in Liechtenstein, beaten World Cup finalist the Netherlands put five unanswered goals past San Marino, and Italy came from a goal down to defeat Estonia 2-1 in Tallinn.

Italy will expect to take maximum points from its game with habitual minnow the Faroe Islands in Florence. The 2006 world champion was not at its best against Estonia, but new coach Cesare Prandelli says he saw plenty of encouraging signs.

“Without a good footing you can’t go very far but it was more than just [Andrea] Pirlo and [Antonio] Cassano that pleased me — we’re becoming a team,” he said. “We’ve rediscovered the ability to play football with courage.”

The Netherlands, for whom new Schalke striker Klaas-Jan Huntelaar scored a hat-trick against San Marino, takes on Finland in Rotterdam in Group E.

One high-profile side that failed to impress in its opening qualifying fixture was France, which fell to a 1-0 defeat at home to Belarus in the absence of several key players through injury and suspension.

Les Bleus, European champions in 2000, now face a daunting trip to face Bosnia-Herzegovina and coach Laurent Blanc says his young side must not shirk the physical battles that are sure to await them in Sarajevo.

“We’ll have to increase our physical play,” Blanc said. “We’re still a bit tender, the Bosnians will intimidate us and we’ll need to have weapons to respond.”

Belarus has never qualified for a major tournament but it could go clear at the top of Group D if its defeats Romania, which was held to a 1-1 draw in Albania in their group opener. Portugal, which fell to Spain in the last 16 at the World Cup, visits Norway.

The Euro 2004 finalists shipped four goals in an extraordinary 4-4 draw at home to Cyprus on Friday, prompting center-back Ricardo Carvalho to urge his team to tighten up defensively for the trip to Oslo. “We have to be more compact, especially at the back,” the Real Madrid defender told the UEFA Web site.

With reigning world and European champion Spain playing Argentina in a friendly in Buenos Aires, Scotland can go top of Group I if it beats Liechtenstein in Glasgow and Lithuania fails to win in the Czech Republic. (Tom Williams)

PSSI Treasurer Sentenced To 5 Years for Slaying Wife

Jakarta - An official of the Indonesian Football Association has been found guilty of killing his wife and was sentenced to five years in prison by the South Jakarta District Court.

Prosecutors had sought a three-year sentence for Yosep Revo, treasurer for the association, also known as PSSI,

However, Judge Artha Theresia on Monday tacked on an additional two years, citing Yosep’s brutal resolution of a dispute with his spouse.

Prosecutors said that on Feb. 10, Yosep’s wife, Maria Imakulata Reni Widowati, came home and had an argument with Yosep, who had accused his wife of having an affair.

In a fit of anger, Yosep then beat his wife to death with a laptop computer, prosecutors said.

Artha was quoted by news portal Detik.com as saying Yosep had only received five years behind bars because he was the family’s breadwinner, had no prior convictions and had admitted guilt. Peace between the families of Yosep and the victim was also a mitigating factor.

Yosep looked away from the judges as the decision was read, Detik reported.

Casmus Refra, a lawyer for Yosep, said he would appeal the verdict, pointing to the need for his client to be with his children.

The PSSI had earlier said it would wait until after the verdict was delivered before deciding whether Yosep would be dismissed from his post.

Yosep was elected to the PSSI executive committee in April 2009 to replace Hamka Yandhu, who is currently charged with graft during his time as a Golkar Party lawmaker.(Wimbo Satwiko)

As Indonesian Football Team Goes on Break, ‘Slight Improvement’ Seen

Jakarta - Alfred Riedl wants his squad to get all the rest it can. Once the national training camp reopens in October, it will be all work for the Indonesia football team.

National coach Riedl will break camp today for the Idul Fitri holiday and won’t meet his players again until training resumes on Oct. 3.

Heading to the recess, Riedl is relieved to have wrapped up a pair of local friendlies with what he calls “a slightly improved performance” by his team.

He also voiced his opinion on the series of international friendlies the National Team Body (BTN) set up for next month, calling the Ivory Coast match on Oct. 13 “a test of fitness” for his squad.

Not surprisingly, the national team won both its tune-up matches against Premier Division clubs, the Austrian coach’s first games at the helm of the Merah Putih.

Riedl found the way his squad played in a 3-0 defeat of Pro Titan in Jakarta on Sunday more pleasing than the team’s first effort on Thursday in which it struggled to a 4-1 victory over Persita Tangerang.

As in the first match, Riedl divided his squad into two sides, each of which played one extended half of 60 minutes. While he observed that his team lacked aggressiveness, Riedl did say his team “played a little better.”

“The first team looked fresh compared to the second team, which missed some chances in the second half. But I think we played a little better than in the first match,” Riedl said.

Defender Ricardo Salampessy and forward Yongki Aribowo missed Sunday’s friendly because of injury. In their absence, Riedl tinkered with his game plan as he resorted to a 4-2-3-1 formation in the second half and found that the adjustment worked.

“We missed Yongki, so the second team had to play under a new system. I think [the team] played quite well, but it’s still not what I wanted to see. I want the boys to fight for every position,” Riedl said.

For the second straight game, it was forward Bambang Pamungkas who stood out.

Playing for the first-half side, Bambang asserted himself from the start. He set up a pinpoint cross to defender Nova Arianto, but Nova’s shot sailed over the bar. After midfielder Arif Suyono broke the deadlock, Bambang’s free kick made it 2-0.

The national team’s second-half squad broke through Pro Titan’s defense and had several scoring chances. However, lapses in midfield left Riedl’s players vulnerable in defense. Forward M Isnaini scored the third and final goal.

Riedl said he wanted to play “a weaker opponent” before his squad faces Ivory Coast. BTN said Indonesia was due to play Uruguay in a friendly on Oct. 9, but Riedl said the Ivory Coast match was the only one confirmed.

“According to my information the match against Ivory Coast is already set up, but before that we want to look for a relatively weak opponent that we can play,” the coach said.

“But we have to look at the players’ conditioning when they return to camp. I know Ivory Coast is much stronger than us, but I hope the boys will be much fitter than they are now so we can play better.”

Between the holiday break and the resumption of the national training camp, the players will report to their respective clubs, which are gearing up for the opening of the Indonesian Super League on Sept. 26.

Around that time, Riedl will also be busy. He will fly to Hanoi to watch the friendly between Vietnam and North Korea on Sept. 24.

Riedl and BTN head Iman Arif will then proceed to Amsterdam to meet with Netherlands football officials regarding BTN’s plans to hold a training camp for Dutch football players of Indonesian descent.
