Vettel out of order or not?

I dont like the 'team orders' aspect of the sport, I think all the drivers should be driving to win. But.......Webber says he turned the engine down when the order went through, for Vettel to then ignore the order is a bit ****ty.

Maybe so but it was great to watch, far better than the normal runaway leader with no real movement through the field.

Pretty bad patter to screw over your team mate.

Vettel is a prick for what he done, should have allowed Webber to go past him to get No 1 spot, to late to apologize after it.

Hamilton pulling into the McLaren section of the pit lane was funnier tho!

I don't like team orders, would have liked to see them both battle it out for first place. But team orders are there and under the circumstances it was really poor from Vettel to ignore them. Compare the Red Bulls with McLaren - Rosberg was in the same situation as Vettel but held his position even though he thought he could overtake Hamilton and catch the Red Bulls. And Hamilton himself was very humble and gracious on the podium, saying that Rosberg deserved to be there instead of him. Rosberg was obviously disappointed but he understood and accepted the situation, and there was nowhere near as much tension as there was between Webber and Vettel.

Also, was a real shame to see Di Resta having to retire from the race after showing some promise, I like to see him do well. Pit lane was full of incidents yesterday - Hamilton's mix-up, Force India with both Sutil and Di Resta, Button's wheel coming off, an unsafe release...
