Why to Lewis? Lewis did nothing wrong.... It was the team who ordered Rosberg behind

Mercs team orders were a lot worse. Can't believe they neutralised Rosberg like that. He looked fast enough to catch the Red Bulls as they were battling, they didn't say anything about Rosbergs fuel.
Lewis was just obeying team orders though. If he had let Rosberg through he probably would've been in some trouble with Brawn. It doesn't apply to Vettel as he disobeyed orders and stole a win from Webber.

Vettel radio chat mid race:
"He's too slow, get him out of the way!!"
That pretty much sums up Vettel's understanding of team orders and race strategy. It's all one way. So, I guess we shouldn't be surprised how things went in the end.

I don't blame him if i was in his position i will do the same. Why i should back off.
He fought hard and he over took mark. And if Lewis was had the name of hard fighter if he had put a fight then. He doesn't put and i don't think with out knowing of lewis merc would not transmit Rosberg to Stay behind. This is more like Silverstone 2011.but more than that.
i dont know too, only took it for the little finger shown by webber in the background
End of the day Mercedes messed up with Lewis, they ran him to light, or used to much fuel thinking they could get ahead of the Red Bulls. End of the day they either agreed on the finishing by who came out ahead in the pits or Mercedes wanted to give their new star a lil' leg up on Nico (conspiracy theories woah!).
Red Bull saw it would be a Webber, Vettel 1-2, Vettel doesn't like to be told to slow down ever (evidence of him setting fastest lap times after just being told to take it easy, this has happended many a time while leading a race), he thought he was quicker, said "**** it" and went for it, Webber did his best to stop him but he clearly wasn't expecting it.

Dude dont think you really understand what went on. Lewis had no control. Mark had no control. Vettel did what ever he felt like doing. Nico obeyed team orders just like Vettel should have.
I shouted when Alonso drove past the pit entrance and then broke off his front wing almost immediately after. The Webber/Vettel thing just had me shaking my head, lol.Made you shout at your TV though didn't it
Vettel and Alonso on the some Team would be epic!
Lol Webber has really to concentrate to what he is saying
I agree, it was wrong of Sebastian to go for it without asking, but still, you've got to admit that spectacular move is much better than having Mark let go of the throtle as if they were in Hockenheim.. RBR would never do that.
Webber has stayed put behind Vettel countless times, letting him keep a win, and the one time that they ask Vettel to stay behind he has to take it anyways. You should back off because the team that pays you millions told you to back off.
Me too ,
not only that,but as he went through the two straights i thought : hmm now that he ll reach top speed the pressure and stress over there will be too much... guess what happened at the start of the 2nd lap?
it seems simply the typical moments of ferrari... they have a tic
or something when they shut down completely and take some weird decisions or respond too late or wrongly to a situationSo Battling on track and Overtaking his team mate for win is wrong cos he broke the Team orders
But Having low on fuel and team was holding the other driver for him was right I really don't think this was done with out Knowing for Lewis. glad so people are guiding others to say who to like and why to like .

The thing about it is that Hamilton will look like the good guy for saying that Rosberg should have been on the podium but I doubt he would be saying the same thing if Mercedes allowed ROS to race.
