Still prefer Rubens a few years ago
Team: Let Jenson past, he says he's quicker then you
Rubens: I'm driving, don't make me laugh

haha, yeah over the years, but so far the Alonso is the best THIS year, .
What about red bull telling vettel that Webber was quicker than him and still 7 laps to go, vettel was clearly the faster man, webber has used soft tyres and vettel has new soft tyres and the times he was catching him. Would have been good for the last final laps to see a same team battle.
And how about the only team so far not complaining and signed for next year is williams!

Felt sorry for vettel goin off like he did but well driven button bring on the british gp :)
But tbh i think button would have taken the lead after pit stops if he was close enough to vettel.

Do you blame Red Bull after what happened behind the safety car last year when Vettel took out Webber.
And then again this year where Vettel was too eager for 2nd place in Australia that he took out Kubica.
I don't blame Red Bull for telling him porkies, it's code to prevent "team orders". lol

This is exactly what Red Bull were thinking me thinks.
It's a team sport at the end of the day. Personally however I would of preffered to have seen them go at it.
I wonder what Brawn will do if this ever happens? Obviously it's not so far as Jenson has just been so much better - but Barrachello is bound to have a good race sooner or later where it'll end up them two racing.

I hate the fact that teams need to worry about rules against team orders at all.
F1 used to be all about the TEAM winning the INDIVIDUAL championship. Nothing else.
Forget constructors championships and forget which driver took the individual one - the only thing in the mind of the teams used to be ANY of our drivers have to take it home.
Banning team orders ruined all that, and added a ton of room for opinionated steward rulings.
Where do you draw the line? A team may agree on any number of inconspicuous ways of telling their drivers to let the other one past... And who's to tell a driver made a slight mistake in a turn on purpose rather than a human glitch? Drivers make small mistakes all the time, they're human after all.
A much better approach would be to bring back the clear 1 and 2 driver positions and let team orders be what they are. That was what F1 was all about and as it still should be.
It's ridiculous that Red Bull, having a shot at the title still, have to spoil their own chances by their own driver stealing points from the potential wc.

But surely Webber is in with a chance of getting the World Title if Vettel is? He is only 3 points behind him after all, and he's finished above him in 5/7 races....

1.5 points behind Vettel now, but I understand Red Bull telling Vettel to ease off, if Vettel had got close, big chance of him taking Webber out with his history. Like I said before, remember Australia this year where he got too desperate to overtake Robert Kubica and the result was that they both went out?

LOL thanks Doc!
He actually made 3 mistakes in that race, anyone notice them? He missed a couple of turns and ran wide... the wheels are very slowly, very very slowly, falling off...
Super Button - Mr 100%..........

Button has a bit to go before he beats Schumachers domination in 2004. He won 12 of the first 13 races.
So only 7 to go then

It would been 7 points instead of 3 if they had swapped places...
A team should have the privilege of operating as a team - not as two individual competitors who just happens to wear the same dress driving the same car.

Ermm, how do you work that out, Webber is 1.5 points behind Vettel, so it would have been 5.5 points, not 7.
Can't you lot look at the overall standings

Indeed Warney!
"Only five women have ever participated at the highest level - Maria Teresa de Filippis in the late 1950s, Lella Lombardi and Divina Galica in the mid-1970s, Desiré Wilson in 1979 and Giovanna Amati in 1992 - and of them, only the late Lombardi ever troubled the scorers, with a half-point for sixth place in the tragic 1975 Spanish Grand Prix at Montjuïc Park, whilst the latter three never actually made the starting grid."
I knew there was talk of one recently! The Indy Car girl, bit of a hottie apparently.
