    SV said in todays press conference that while he was sorry he disobeyed team orders, he was not sorry for taking the victory from MW and he would probably do it next time too. He said Mark did not deserve the win and he will never ever apologise for winning.

    Glad to see he's honest about it at last.

    Well that's that then - Vettle and Webber will be racing each other for the rest of the season, and Webber will be out of a job come season end as he is a man of principle and won't play second fiddle to SV.

    Good to hear the drivers so honest about it, if what was said about Webber in Brazil is true then he cant complain one bit.

    The real winner in all this should be us the viewers, with racing to the flag instead of all this 'multi' nonsense.

    I'd say he'll more than likely be out of a job because RB won't want him there by the end of this season.

    Whatever your feelings on the matter, there is no denying that this has been a huge boost to F1.

    Webber was finished with RB this year regardless. I'd bet his replacement will be an F1 rookie already on RedBulls payroll.

    Hulkenburg or Bianchi in the other seat, Seb is there until 2016.

    It could very well be Webbers last year, he said himself he's not interested in moving to a smaller team.
    He probably knows at this stage he hasnt got what it takes to beat vettel over a whole season.
    2010 was his year but he let it slip.
    He's starting to look like another coulthard only more likeable.

    Yep, with no more team orders for the end of a race hopefully we see some proper fighting on track.

    Just came across this cool video showing on-board footage of the 'battle' between them. Some balls on Vettel going for an overtake on the wall side @ 300 km/h. :cool:
