Before the season, Webber enquired about Red Bull adviser and junior formula team owner [[Helmut Marko]] for his treatment of young drivers and was told by team principal [[Christian Horner]] to obey Marko to avoid conflict.{{sfn|Webber|2015|pp=204–210}} The RB3 proved to be a quick but unreliable car, causing Webber to retire seven times during the season. He scored his first points of 2007 when he finished seventh in the [[2007 United States Grand Prix|United States]] and took his second career podium finish with a third-place finish at the {{F1GP|2007|European}} three races later. Webber scored once more that year with another seventh place at the {{F1GP|2007|Belgian}}. He was on course to finish well at the rain-affected {{F1GP|2007|Japanese}} until [[Scuderia Toro Rosso|Toro Rosso]]'s [[Sebastian Vettel]] crashed into the rear of his car behind the [[safety car]], eliminating both drivers from the race. Webber tallied ten points for 12th overall and beat his teammate Coulthard 15 times in qualifying.{{sfn|Jones|2008|pp=26–29, 79, 109, 116–117}}

==Driving style==
In describing Webber's driving style, journalist [[Mark Hughes (motorsport)|Mark Hughes]] stated: "The thing he does arguably better than anyone else, is extract every ounce of potential from the car through fast, aerodynamically-loaded corners" since extra lap time could be located in slower turns because the car remains in them for longer.<ref name=WEBDriving>{{cite web|last=Hughes|first=Mark|title=How should F1 remember Mark Webber?|url=https://www.skysports.com/f1/news/22058/9041937/how-should-f1-remember-mark-webber|publisher=Sky Sports|date=28 November 2013|access-date=31 January 2021|archive-date=7 January 2015|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150107120355/http://www1.skysports.com/f1/news/22058/9041937/how-should-f1-remember-mark-webber|url-status=live}}</ref> He was able to feel the braking grip of his tyres and could correctly modulate throttle power as grip levels reduced under braking to slow the vehicle down. Entering a braking zone, Webber achieved more retardation rate in a downforce-reliant car than other drivers and as the downforce decreased he was able to modulate pressure and sensitivity well to remain within the tyre's grip limit.<ref name=WEBDriving/> His braking pressure force enabled him to translate lap time where the entry speed is high enough to make this possible without brake locking.<ref name=HughesBBC2009>{{cite web|last=Hughes|first=Mark|title=Why Webber always had star quality|url=https://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/motorsport/formula_one/8149111.stm|publisher=BBC Sport|date=14 July 2009|access-date=1 February 2021|archive-date=3 February 2021|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210203152023/http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/motorsport/formula_one/8149111.stm|url-status=live}}</ref> His driving style, which was refined in downforce-heavy sports cars in the late 1990s, was not suited to a more gentle approach required for driving V8 F1 Pirelli-shod cars because of how he managed those brand of tyres that wore out faster than the Bridgestone compounds he was accustomed to.<ref>{{cite web|last=Newman|first=Scott|title=Sebastian Vettel vs Mark Webber: who was quicker?|url=https://www.whichcar.com.au/features/sebastian-vettel-vs-mark-webber-who-was-quicker|work=Motor|date=3 August 2020|access-date=31 January 2021|archive-date=23 September 2020|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200923004558/https://www.whichcar.com.au/features/sebastian-vettel-vs-mark-webber-who-was-quicker|url-status=live}}</ref>

Webber is nicknamed "Aussie Grit" for "his determination in the face of adversity and his patriotism."<ref name=F1MagAug2010/> Bruce Jones described Webber in the book ''The Story of Formula One: 65 Years of Life in the Fast Lane'' as having earned "considerable admiration for his straight-talking, honest approach that was devoid of pretence or hyperbole. He is an out-and-out racer cast from something of an old-fashioned mould and as such often seemed an adult in an increasingly infantile world."{{sfn|Jones|2015|pp=314–318}} [[BBC Sport]]'s Andrew Benson wrote that Webber's "combination of race-winning pace and forthright manner has made him a central figure in F1 over the last decade" and that Webber had "remained true to himself. He is unimpressed with the trappings of F1 and its supposed glamour. And his willingness to follow his own mind is intact."<ref name=BBCPB2013>{{cite web|last=Benson|first=Andrew|title=Mark Webber: F1's 'proper bloke' will be sorely missed|url=https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/formula1/23073995|publisher=BBC Sport|date=27 June 2013|access-date=31 January 2021|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130630072410/http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/formula1/23073995|archive-date=30 June 2013|url-status=live}}</ref>
