I don't think that was because of a preference for Vettel, that was 2 get their 2 cars finish as high as possible, and the strategy was adapted mid-race. Vettel also drove his nuts off in that race so he would come out of pits ahead of Webber. Webber would have finished higher if he wasn't held up.
The wing fiasco was because Vettel was first in the championship. It would have looked worse if they gave the wing back to Webber. That wouldn't be logical - he was behind in the championship. Right now I could tell you that if the same thing happened and only one wing upgrade was available, they would put that on Webber's car.
Put it this way, it was never Webber's wing to begin with - it was Red Bull's wing.
I also believe that Webber was given Vettel's damaged chassis for that race - for which I have no explanation for, and in that case that was not fair.
However, going into that race, Webber was the number 2 driver, because of his championship position. But they would not ever ask Webber to move out of the way of Vettel - that would not be fair. But Webber himself admits, that Red Bull change the number 1 status to the driver whose had the better run of results. Vettel at the time of Silverstone.
In my opinion Vettel has always had the better results this whole season, just that whenever he makes mistakes or his car fails, Webber inherits the win. Just think - at Korea the same thing would've happen if Webber didn't make that mistake, he would've won the race.
(Stuff Hamilton and his mistake costing him a win - REMEMBER Webber's mistake ultimately cost him a win and 7 point advantage over Alonso)
The whole driver's table in my opinion is based on Vettel's mistakes and mechanical failures, and drivers subsequently inheriting the wins, this is way bigger than Hamilton's mistakes.
#5 Vettel!
there is definatly a preference for sebb over mark but thats the way it it i guess
This is a fantastic link, and I just put in
