...... but am angry with Hamilton's use of team orders.......


:confused:

Hamilton was told to fuel save. He did. How is that Hamilton using team orders?

Nowhere did Hamilton tell the team to make Rosberg back off. Lewis even said on the podium it should be Rosberg up there....?


Sorry I meant Mercedes - a bit of a brain fart.

To be honest I'm now looking at the emotional aspect to this. If Vettel needs Webber to pull over in the final race this year to help him get the championship, will he do it?

Webber has for 3 years supported Vettel's championship (ok, maybe just 2 years) and instead of letting Webber take the win just this once, to repay him for everything, Vettel does THIS.

He could have at least finished right behind Webber (a la Rosberg style) to prove his point that he could have won, and then Webber could have been singing a similar tune to Hamilton.

But no - it has to be done THIS way, and again Vettel shows his childish attitude, but yet I still support him and want him to win the championship this year.... But I don't want it to be done with cloud hanging over his championship.

Vettel did everything possible today to enhance his spoiled brat Bieber image even further. :D

And Webber will probably be a b**ch from now onwards, no more mr nice guy because it's not working with bieber as a teammate.

How is Vettel being childish? It's a race and the point is to win. I would actually question why Red Bull were using team orders, especially to help the no. 2 driver, this early on in the season. Still, a win's a win.

Same thoughts here. Vettel might be regretting it now in hindsight.

They weren't trying to help Webber. They asked both drivers to turn down the engines, and cruise home, in a comfortable 1, 2. Webber did as instructed. Vettel thought he was bigger than the team and its insignificant orders.

Even Vettel has now admitted he was wrong. Will you.....?
