What's amusing in this whole controversy is that Vettel said he did not recognize the team order "multi 21" (meaning that he and Webber to hold positions), but now everyone knows the secret code!

Team orders are the part of F1 I don't like. Let them race. Best driver wins.

Q: You’ve explained that you didn’t understand the ‘Multi 21’ message over the team radio…

Vettel : The fact is that I heard that over the team radio but didn’t connect it with the situation - whether you believe that or not. I was doing my race and concentrating on winning - and have won. After the race it dawned on me that I interpreted the team radio wrong - and I have apologised.

Q: Had you understood the team order properly, would you have obeyed it?

Vettel : I am not sure if I can give you a perfect answer on that question. Of course there would have been a conflict, as I am the type of person that respects the team’s decisions, but probably I would have thought that Mark wouldn’t have deserved it at that time.

Personally I wouldn't mind Vettel taking himself and Webber out again as per Hungary, and focus on the other drivers in the field.

I'd love to see another Kimi or underdog win to unsettle the status-quo and keep the season exciting and interesting.
