What would a bookmaker say about Malaysia GP 2013?
The top 4 positions at Malaysia may not have been a true reflection of the ultimate car/driver capability.
Should F1 have any obligation to betting markets to maintain the veracity of the result of an F1 race?
I'm pretty sure that a bookie would've been far happier with Webber finishing in first place than Vettel...

thankfully, bookmakers are the least of anyone's concerns
you can't argue with results.

F1 is under no obligation to betting markets whatsoever. Actually I don't any sport is under any obligation to betting markets whatsoever. It's their fault if people or sports don't get the results they're after; they should have priced that in with the risk. I'm pretty sure that they aint paying any due royalties to the FIA either.The Old Republic was a stupidly run organisation which deserved to be taken over. All Hail Palpatine!

Team orders are legal, and anybody placing a bet should be aware of that or they're an even bigger mug.

Bookies should be aware of the rules before they accept bets. However artificial team orders are, they are legal at present and allowances can not be made for betting. I'm pretty sure fans are aware when they bet and in that case should know who will take the advantage.
