Its racing, you race to win.
Webber's unhappy that he wasnt given the win by team orders? Well he should have fought for the win, by RACING
The way vettel fought for first place, then won by a fair margin, shows to me webber couldnt have won it without team orders, otherwise he would
have
THe merc thing annoyed me. I like hamilton, but he should have just taken 4th

I totally agree, however if that was the case then why did the team tell Mark that Seb would not attack, and then told Seb the same thing. You either
have team orders and obey them, or you scrap the team order rule altogether and let them race, I prefer the latter, but the fact is the team are
unable to control one of their own drivers when issuing an order, I don't know what the answer is as they are there to win, but there has to be
some 'level playing field' in oredr for both drivers to understand the rules of the game.
In respect of Lewis, yes it did remind me very much of the Damon and Ralf race, where it did seem that Ralf at the time was indeed the faster of the
two, what is different about both the Damon and Lewis races is that both team members stuck to the wishes of the team, unlike Seb who went and did his
own thing.
This is not about racing, it's about morals, human morals.

I don't know what all the fuss is about, as Mark did the same thing at the british GP in 2011 (ignored team orders and tried to overtake SV)! He
should have fought back (they call it racing) rather than accepting 2nd. God and Ozzies call the Brits whinging poms!!

Didn't Red Bull say over the radio to Webber prior to this incident that they had wound back the engine on his car? So was he even able to
defend his 1st place?

It seems to me that he passed Webber because he could. If Webber was so good, this wouldn't happen. Get over it Mark. You are, and always will
be, a number 2, and if you haven't understood this yet, you are not very smart. You have to choose whether to be a Rubens, or go off in an
inferior car and be the boss. Your choice really.
Webber is not a multiple world champion for a reason; Vettel is, for the right reasons. Even though I personally despise his finger, his face, and
Uncle Bernie's fawning, my view, and Mark Webber's view, does not count, anywhere you look.
