- 31 May 10, 16:16#201441I've watched three different camera shots of the crash (front, rear, and Webber's in-car) in slo-mo and it's clear that Webber made no move toward Vettel. Webber turned his head once to the left, probably to check his mirror, just before Vettel's car appeared in left of frame so he likely knew exactly where Vettel was (and that he was coming fast). Webber kept his steering wheel dead straight except for a couple of slight corrections to the right and one last larger correction to the right -- which still was quite small -- just before the impact.
From the head-on camera, it is clear that it was Vettel who turned into Webber, despite Vettel's protestations to the contrary, and with plenty of tarmac still to his left.
So it largely comes to whether one blames Vettel for making an aggressive racing move or whether one blames Webber for refusing to give way to a clearly faster teammate (which seems to be RBR's take).
I blame the rubbish "no team orders" rule.
The press are largely ignoring that Jens and Hambone did something equally stupid but managed not to knock each other out of the race.

Just another miscommunication.
