`Sometimes I can`t help myself`
Mark Webber has admitted that he clashed with countryman - and Williams` technical director - Sam Michael last season.
In the Auto Action magazine, 29-year-old Webber - who became disillusioned with the lack of progress at Grove in 2005 - said he was rebuked for being too opinionated about processes at the factory.
``I am keen on attention to detail,`` Mark explained, ``and sometimes I did upset Sam because I was focusing on things that were not my job.
``Sometimes I can`t help myself. I want to make sure we cover all the bases, which (Michael) is trying to do anyway.

``When you feel it slipping a bit I feel involved with that and I don`t want us to go down.``

During Webber`s previous tenure, at Jaguar in 2003-2004, he was heralded not only for his speed and determination but for being a motivational figure behind garage doors.

But at super-successful Williams, 2005 was the lowest ebb in its recent decline. Webber refers to his maiden season for the British team as `a kick in the guts`.
