If that is the case , pi$$-off .
In your second paragraph , you are wrong about the money , as the number of points directly affects the entry fees .
Another thing you perhaps need to understand is that Paddy said that the call was about an imminent threat to his own position , as Vettel was approaching very quickly . Lewis needed the win .
You have to remember that (very skillfully , I might add) Lewis was going five seconds slower , but going fast enough in the sections where a following car might get a look in .
That's got to be incredibly hard , but it's a very dangerous game , and his engineer and Paddy needed to remind him what was at stake .
Carefully worded as an "instruction" , and not an "order" , they expected it ignored , but noted .
And , as Lewis said afterwards , he didn't upset the one-two , and didn't cause any crash , so no problem .
And , now Nico is saying put it to bed as well , as he doesn't fault Hamilton at all for doing all he could to stop him .
Any talk of a Hamilton sack is utter garbage , in my opinion .
