did you really expect any different ??

I'd have reversed their points, and deducted the manufacturer points for that race

As much as they way they did it stank I'm not sure what the beef is. Most teams do it, they just do it in such a way as to not get found out. IE everyone says a driver pulling over to let their team-mate past isn't illegal if it's the "driver's choice". But who's the biggest comptetion to the average driver- their team mate. So realistically unless the big team boss is going to get out the red hot poker unless they do it who isn't going to enjoy taking their team-mate?

rightly or wrongly - they broke the current rules.
The team told the driver what to do, that is the point.
Docking the teams points for the race would have made the point to the team.
Reversing the driver points would have negated their action.

If the rule is wrong it should be changed, if not, obey it.
