Classic autopilot stuff....

with the hamelton issue rossa was asked to stay behind because the team were worried about fuel in BOTH cars. they also knew if the let him past hammy would want to keep up to show he could and would end up both running out of fuel.
huge mistake on the teams part but the orders were for a good solid reason.


With vettel it wasnt as clear cut, though there were tyre worrys and not wanting to stress the car more than needed with such a window to 3rd/4th i would have prefered to let them both race. (and take them both out as i think vettel is a spoilt prick anyway)
but the team made a choice for reasons we dont know and as said above by others its his JOB to drive FOR the team. a cash punishment is pointless and a race ban will never happen (though i would like to see it) so if it were my team i would make sure he is punished in some other way.
