British Grand Prix 2011, Silverstone Circuit - Race 9/19

on that replay you can see where webber conceded the position, he was along side vettel and would have had him but dropped back just saying " i had you" to vettel.
 
Woa, christian horner's interview was uncomfortable. :p He's quite right though in that decision to get vettel more points.
 
It's blatently obvious to me that all this 'Bad Luck' Mark has had with his car is to do with his status within the team.
 
Watch him squirm, why noypt just say at the end of te race we have to ensure both cars have to finish. Unto that point however it's fair game. Which is what he kind of said with a lot of squirming anyway.

I want to see a interview with webber, Lewis, button, MSC and kobi.
 
Yep it's the same bullying tactic the defending cars have been using all season, sticking rigidly to the racing line with no thought about the car alongside them.

When I race Karts (250 Long Circuit) there were times we were 2-3-4 abreast during a corner, was awesome the respect we had for each other, don't get that now, cars too safe.

If karts touch wheels in a 100mph corner someone is going home with a broken neck/back in F1 if they touch someone is needing a new wing :rolleyes:
 
If there were no rule changes, you would probably have seen Vettel win the race. Is that what you wanted?

Well TBH no. I love watching a good fight. But Vettel is in the best car on the grid. You never hear him complain about the car. I dare say he is comfortable and much more confident pushing that car more than other drivers during qualifying. Hes nailed the starts, so all he has to do is drive to a pace that is just beating the other drivers and hope that his team gives him the correct pit stops.

It just feels today that the FiA have changed the rules to suit Ferrari. I mean, when was the last time a rule change happend and Ferrari didnt kick up a fuss about it?

IMHO that team thinks that they are F1 and without them F1 would crumble and die off. They should be proven wrong.
 
Horney saying 'we had to make sure the TEAM, got the most points'

Ehh both drivers would have finished second and third so it isn't about the TEAM getting the most points for the TEAM no matter how many times you say TEAM Christian.
 
It's blatently obvious to me that all this 'Bad Luck' Mark has had with his car is to do with his status within the team.

Definitely agree with that. They're obviously favouring vettel and giving him better car parts and giving him priority over webber in race decisions.
 
Webber needs to regularly out qualify Vettel, stay ahead of him and get more points but he isn't so can't really have any complaints that the team see him as a 'number 2' driver.

Assuming it was a clean touch and no broken body work or both totally crash, so what he said is correct.
