100% CORRECT. As usual Webber throws his toys when it doesn't work out his way.
Vettel 3 x WDC..............Webber not even the same number of race victories.

What Vettel did to Webber is the same thing Senna would have done any of his team mates. Its racing and I'm pretty glad he took he initiative and over took Webber.

Strange how no one makes a bog deal of Webber trying to put Vettel into the wall...

You seem to not understand. Webber ignored the team orders and forced Vettel to defend in the dying laps, which he managed to do.
For the time they are teammates Mark has always tried to make Seb's life harder, even at the last deciding race last year. He still thinks that he has the young rookie against him to play mind games like in 2010.

P.S. I mean at Silverstone.

On another topic... Raikonnen must have been furious at Hulkenberg... the guy was driving very dirty. Any news on if he will be penalised?

Your final sentence shows your bias. Webber held the inside line, Vettel CHOSE to go inside of that when overtaking. Webber didn't put Vettel into the wall at all.

Mark followed him home, he didn't try a single move. He just followed round in his wheel tracks.

Now this escalated pretty quickly. It was Vettel's decision to go in that gap.

It's about attitude in the end. If you want to behave like a 3x WDC you don't say "Mark is too slow, get him out of the way", you don't chase Karthikeyan on 3 wheels to show him the finger, you don't expect all the cars to jump out of your way and let you through just because you are Vettel and most of all, you don't act like a spoiled brat when you are 25.

There was a point of the race where he drove into Raikonnen and nearly bumped tyres with him. Raikonnen even spoke about it on the team radio. Anyone have more news on this?

To be fair... The racing line swings to the right at that point. Hulkenberg simply followed that racing line. Raikonnen had room to move over, he wasn't being pushed beyond the edge of the track.

I saw nothing at all wrong with it.

Pirelli joke continues. Today it took 5 sets of tyres to do 58 laps.

Barichello was a moron for going in the gap with Schumi at Hungary.

It's the same, as I posted earlier, there was a car and 3/4 gap, and Vettel went for it, and Webber closed the door as much as possible without contact.

Webber was being dirty.
