Mark Webber says Red Bull's issues in qualifying were 'embarrassing' after he set the tenth fastest time in Hungary.

Webber suffered from an electronic problem that affected his gearbox and KERS, meaning that he struggled to progress from Q2.

He made the top 10 shootout but could not set a time in the final session.

"KERS, gearbox, you name it... driving the car so far off the potential is unbelievable and so massively frustrating," he said.

"It's stupid, it's embarrassing and it's a brutal circuit to be out of position. We should be challenging for the front row and we're bloody 10th. So, a pain in the arse. It's amazing... all the effort you go to and it's two weekends on the bounce where you get that," he added.

Webber admits that it will be difficult to achieve a strong result in the race.

"It's a long race and things need to be functioning correctly. KERS was 50 per cent and there were other things. So we managed to tick nearly every bloody box in qualifying and made it hard."

"Hopefully we'll get that sorted for tomorrow, but it's going to be hard to get the result we should do."
