And second would have been better than third or possibly a DNF in the worst case scenario...the truth is, he probably is happy with Vettels DNF but angry because he wasnt protected by team orders. The points have worked out in his favour, but I don't think he's angry that he wasn't 'protected' by team orders, but rather seemingly hung out to dry by them. Vettel given extra revs while Mark told to fuel save, and even then after Vettel drives into him, before the overtake is complete and before the corner anyway, Red Bull are pointing the finger at him?
As Gordo says it's all speculation, but we can't do more then speculate as fans as we're not privy to Red Bull's telemetry - and we never will be. Anything they release will be covered in spin or following an agenda.
It's undeniable in my eyes that regardless of how Vettel managed to get alongside Webber, from the on board shots Webber simply gave Vettel one car's width, which is all he is required to do, and Vettel cut across Webber too early hoping that he would yield - which Webber didn't have to do as he had the racing line. Vettel just carried on anyways and ka-blooey.
Heck if we go back ten seconds when Vettel's in Webber's slipstream he had the choice of going under Webber or round him, Vettel chose the dirty side of the track to have the inside line for the corner - Webber did not push him onto it.
I just find it sad, Red Bull seemed like such a great all round team prior to this race. Now I have about as much respect for them as Ferrari - actually less, at least everyone knew where they stood when they agreed to race with Schumacher's Ferrari.
