Hasn't he said he'd do it again?
F1's a strange sport in that I can't think of any other ones (other than cycling) where it's an individual but also a teamsport. on the BBC site he said it was payback after Webber not backing him previously what a load of bóllócks
It's a change of tune from the 'apologetic' Vettel after the event itself.
Hope Webber gets even at some point during the season
Just shows the character of the man. Imagine what would have happened if Hamilton had done what he did
Vettel let himself down big time with some of his comments. He came across as jumped up little man.
I honestly wouldn't be surprised if this costs Vettel the title.
The team can't trust him anymore, and I doubt anyone else would take him on if this is the kind of respect he shows the team seniors.
I'm usually a staunch Vettel defender, but his comment about Webber not deserving the victory was pretty pathetic.

i have a bit of time for vettel , he has got what it takes to get the job done --- and then some ,
team orders are a blight on the whole principle of F1 and sport in general and basically vettel either did not understand the coded message or had the bollox to go for it anyway and bollox to team orders
- if a driver sincerely believes he was quicker and better on the day why should he be forced to accept a choreographed ending that may ultimately cost him a WDC come divvy up time in november -
the good thing to come out of all this is red bull say they wont use team orders again ,
----- bully for vettel for telling them where to stick there choreographed ending in future -
Martial but he's benefited from team orders in the past. If Webber had not followed those orders, Seb may have not won one of his world championships.
He can't have it both ways, he can't benefit from it and refuse to not allow his team mate benefit from it.
His recent comments further highlight the selfish and petulant nature of him as well which makes him come across as a prat
I disagree but im not going to get involved.
lets see what happens this weekend.
man unt devil
not saying that vettel has not benefited from team orders but has vettel or webber ever asked for team orders ? ,
however historically vettel is very often quicker than webber anyway so there is allways a doubt that webber would have been able to beat vettel anyway -
vettel has never had any real help from webber and red bull now know there team orders bollox will not work on vettel ----- and why should a 3x WDC have to put up with that kind of rubbish when he is fighting for a WDC -
the good thing to come out of it is that vettel had the bollox to say up yours so now everybody at red bull knows who"s who and whats what as far as phoney choreographed endings are concerned -
That may work against him going forward martial. F1 is a team sport. Vettel may suddenly start to get kers trouble, like Webber has for the past 3 years.
I'm personally against team orders but seb can't have it both ways
Sorry but the Aussie was stupid & naive to think a 3 time World Champion, and the team's No.1 driver would just gift him 1st place trophy, plonker!
