      Well seems it all played out as Mark Webber said it would.
      Vittell runs the team. I do feel sorry for Mark Webber but can't wait to see the next race.

        Not sure it is healthy with a driver dictating how the team is run but I do agree... could be fireworks on the track now. Can't wait.

          Vettle doesn't bother with team orders anyway.

            I can see it all ending in tears between the red bull drivers. Doubt Webber will be there next season, however it pans out.

              The team will ensure that Webber is nowhere near Vettle by reducing the performance of Webber's car, as they have done in the past few seasons. They don't want a re-run of Malaysia.

                A little malice could cause a lot of trouble for redbull.

                It would have been better for the team if both of them had crashed out.

                  What they should have done is removed Vettle from the car for one race and put their test driver in his seat. But that was never going to happen.

                    lots said in the press today. Vettle saying he would do it again ! and the other one I read was mark was to slow ! so it would seem mark is done for and vettel is calling all the shots. we will have to see if at some point in the season vettle needs some help! he wont get it from mark now no matter what!! whats the betting one will take the other out at some point this year.
                    I am a bit on the fence with team orders I don't like it but can see why the team would want them but the driver must obey them if there given.

                      I am not keen on team orders either. I watch motor racing, as most people do, to see cars racing head to head... not following each other sedately. However, team orders are inevitable all the time there is a manufacturers' championship. Having the two competitions running side by side introduces conflicts of interest. No driver is even going to be happy not maximizing their points gain for the sake of the team.

                      However, they have been given the chance to drive in F1 by the team and they join F1 knowing that they are driving for a team as well as for themselves. To put their interests ahead of those of the team is a kick in the teeth for the team and all the workers back at the factory. It is incredibly selfish and arrogant and no team should permit it or else it will mean that management will lose control... as has happened at Red Bull.

                      The strange thing is that the owner of Red Bull has sided with Vettel!

                          I suppose it has got quite a few people talking about it so more people will watch the circus this week = more profit so F1 will be thanking Vettle for his efforts.

                            Team orders are going to stay as long as there are 2 drivers for each team.
                            I am interested to see how this affects other teams and how it plays out within Red Bull.
