Vettel needs a bit of discipline

[Scott]

And I bet Mark would be just the guy to give it to him.  Well maybe this will lead to plenty of discussions over the next 3wk break.

Love his apology.  'I didn't pass him on purpose'

It looks like Seb is going by the old saying, "It's better to ask for forgiveness afterwards than to ask for permission before."

[Scott]

Musta missed the radio call to turn down his engine.

I'm no fan of Seb, but hell, he sure proved he's a racing driver.

[Scott]

No way Ian, when Webber turned down his engine, it was like giving Vettel KERS the whole lap.  He just took advantage of Webber obeying the team while he had no intention of doing the same.

And here was me thinking Micheal Schumacher had retired

I just hope the knife Seb planted in Marks back has been nicely removed and was not rusty

It also reminded me of a Schumacher move - not pretty, assuming he was given the same team orders as Mark. (I say assuming as I haven't absolutely ascertained that Seb was aware that he should stay behind Mark, and I simply can't be bothered to look right now.)

Not best please as I am a Vettel fan, ever so marginally less so now.

I wonder how many more times this year we'll see a disgruntled posse on the podium after someone's not been allowed to overtake, or someone's 'done a Seb'. Very few or none I hope, it's hardly racing is it?

Here's a thought (not thought through very much) - instead of team orders, constructors could allow drivers to race each other, but impose HUGE fines if they crash, or are deemed to have lost points. Smaller but still substantial fines could be levied for replacement engines and gearboxes, deemed to have been a result of 'needless' racing from a constructors point of view. Could help make them cautious enough to race.
