The team orders thing is part of F1. As much as we'd all like it to be an apolitical sport it couldn't be further from that. Politics and favoritism play a role in statistical results in most things. Some drivers try to play the game, others don't. Some play it well, others don't. The "hidden" politics are what anger me more personally.

Wilhelm picks Vettel to win more races than Alonso from Germany forward
Raj picks Alonso to win more races than Vettel from Germany forward.

We good?

Make that 5 wins since Germany with 2 races left to possibly win 2 more.

If you had any real world experience you would know that driving a Formula car is a very physical venture and Webber has not been the same since his bike accident prior to the 2010 Japanese Grand Prix where Webber fractured his shoulder. But since you have no real world experience, you do not know what it is like to be strapped into a car in a harness.

By the way what happened? After the British Grand Prix you were rather confident that Vettel would not win another race and that Alonso was about to clean up? Looks like the exact opposite happened. ROFLMAO
