Days after winning the Monaco Grand Prix, Mark Webber finds himself leveled on points alongside teammate Sebastian Vettel. Speculations are also rife that this could be the last year Webber competes with the Red Bull team. 

Murmurs surround the Formula One driver about heading to Ferrarri next season to replace Felipe Massa, who is expected to end his Formula One career this year.

Winning his second Monaco Grand Prix seems to have brought about lots of changes for Webber. Red Bull chief Christian Horner doesn't think Webber should leave Red Bull no matter who calls. 

"He is comfortable in the team," Horner told ESPNStar.com. "The team know Mark very well and he knows them very well. We are only at race six and a lot depends on his motivation and desire to going forward, which at the moment looks very clear."

It is not yet clear if Formula One has given an approval of any talks between Webber and Ferrari team.
