F1's Man Utd-supporting ace Webber: I used to follow Roy Keane, I'm a big Fergie fan

Formula One driver Mark Webber has revealed that he is a big Manchester United supporter.

The 37-year old Australian, who is set to retire from the F1 scene after the Brazil Grand Prix this weekend, told Sportsmail that he has a love for the Red Devils, including two people in particular.

When asked if he follows a Premier League team, Webber responded with: "Yes. Manchester United.

"I used to follow Roy Keane back in the day and I was a big (Sir Alex) Ferguson fan.

"They are not there anymore, but I love watching United, and I am a fan of Michael Carrick now - a midfield guy doing his stuff."
