What a surprise. The most interesting aspect of it is what if anything the FIA will do.The worst in my view is a fine and perhaps a swap of position for the Red cars.Nothing that will affect Ferrari too much of that I'm sure. Had to laugh at Horners display of 'righteous' indignation tho.

really man. just what have this creep and his Red-Fool team got to say about sporting rights!!!
FIA should look into the start of this race, when the Red Bull driver force Alonso to the wall... this is "Dangerous driving" ...

C'mon Christian ! talk about the pot calling the kettle black. Taking Webber's front wing away from him and giving it to Vettel, the number one Red Fool driver and then crying foul when Massa gives up his place to Alonso ! This whole rule is ridiculous you can't legislate against team orders. Every team has a number one and number two driver. Its obvious which is which especially at Red Fool, Webber's quote at Silverstone, "not bad for a number two" .
Horner has blown it by letting his drivers fight to the death. If Red Fool had ordered their drivers to stay in position in past races this year they could be leading both championships.
As for the Leprechaun, Jordan, he needs to keep his mouth shut and remember all the strokes he pulled when he was a team principal.

Ferrari has always taken "team orders" to a new level. One time can not remember the year, in the late '50s, the old man pulled all his drivers during a race. It was at Monza or maybe LaMans. There was a terrible crash where a driver and several spectators where killed. How did he do it? Took the Ferrari flag and walked out to the track and waved it and all the Ferrari drivers came in.

Addition to my last comment: Horner (Homer Simpson)
would know a "team order" if it hit him in the face!

Absolutely true blukeys; I says the clearest devil & trouble maker of F1 today, is guy from Red Fool (it’s too “filthy” to even mention his name) the only reason he’s making such a big thing about this is because he wishes that FIA will panelize Ferrari so that his bloody German driver will get 1st place… what a dirty a****** he is,
Pity the sponsors Red Bull and Renault for providing this team with such a fantastic car, but they really fell short by just acquiring a "reasonably good" Team Principal to guide this team to secure the championship, it should be easily achieved by now.
And if this team does not win all the championship this year, then Red Bull, Renault and etc... will be the BIGGEST FOOLS for funding them.
