Team mates Mark Webber and Sebastian Vettel were left blaming the other as they watched McLaren score a one-two at the Turkish Grand Prix.
Red Bull Racing were in a commanding position when, on lap 40, Vettel made a move on Webber. Mark held his line, in no mood to make life easy for the 22 year-old, but didn't anticipate what happened next. Vettel darted to the right before he was past, ramming his sidepod into the Aussie's left-front wheel. Vettel's car flapped like a fish as it ripped of its front wing and punctured its right-rear tyre against the identical RB6.
Seb was pitched into an anti-clockwise spin and into retirement. He sprang angrily from the cockpit and made the international sign for 'crazy'.
"That's the adrenalin flowing," explained Mark who left the blame for the accident firmly with Seb. "I wanted to make his line as tight as possible and I wasn't at all expecting that [Seb would move right]. It was a f***ing disaster. Not good for the team at all."
Reporters crowded around the Red Bull motorhome trying to grab a soundbite from Seb. One Fleet Street scribe was strong-armed out of the way by a mechanic, as Vettel steamed by uttering nothing.
Has the relationship between Mark and Seb soured? "We have to manage it," said boss Christian Horner, who revealed Vettel had not apologized to the team. "They were both at fault - they should have given each other the room. I don't see two McLaren's in the fence."
Yes, seven laps after that clash there was nearly another. As light spots of rain fell, Jenson Button attempted to pass Lewis Hamilton for the lead at exactly the same corner, racing wheel-to-wheel through Turns 12-14. The reigning champion got through, but then Hamilton stole back the position at the next corner. Lewis' girlfriend Nicole Scherzinger turned from the TV and covered her eyes. The two lightly touched wheels, then settled down to achieve a perfect score.
Unlike Vettel, whose car was going nowhere, Webber just needed a nose change and crossed the line in third. He remains championship leader, with Button just five points behind.
McLaren were right on Red Bull's pace today, Hamilton having been right on Webber's tail until a slow stop pushed him back to third, with Jenson just behind. Then came their unexpected promotion. Button said over the radio: "We pushed them and they cracked. Brilliant."
It was Lewis' first win of the year. He was afforded an armchair view of the Red Bull accident when it happened. "It was great to watch. It was like watching an action movie in HD," he joked.
As to what prompted the speed differential between the Red Bulls at that fateful moment, conspiracies are beginning to build. Had Mark made a mistake? "You guys need to dig more, somewhere else," he hinted to the throng of reporters. "They were both pushing, and they both had the same engine maps. Mark was struggling a little on the prime [tyre]," Christian Horner insisted, but there remain accusations that Webber was instructed to turn his revs down just before Vettel made the move.

This is an awesome post, im super glad that i stumble upon it. maybe i will even submit this to stumble upon, i think my group would enjoy it.
Awesome stuff. Nice to read some well written articles. A long way between them.
This amazing opinion may make it's exasperation show. Now this comment careens swiftly to pet peeves that have nothing at all related to the post, highlighting rather on generalizations pertaining to most wives, contests, bicyclists, and furthermore an race detailed which has an adjective applied as being a noun. Some coded improper comment is put in, followed straightaway by claims of a “race card” currently being played.

I have learned giving them up is actually almost impossible. I introduced myself to tobacco use while I was really young. It was the most unfortunate mistake of my life. Today I'm much older and I have lung disease. I sampled a pile of the stopping scams and yet absolutely nothing did any good. My last hope is a e cigarette in the end.
I started using tobacco while I was in my teens. That was the dumbest mistake I've made. Now I'm older and I've got coronary artery disease. While attempting to get off cancer sticks, I came upon the e-cigarettes and i intend to see if it helps. With a little luck, it's going to assist me with this particular crappy addiction.
