There were 2 new front wings which Red Bull brought for Webber and Vettel.
Vettel's fell off in practice.
So what did RBR do?
Gave him Webber's wing.

It was clear after Turkey that Webbo will not score either polls or wins. Pity.
I hope for Webber's sake that he can win this race ( if Hamilton can't) just ruffle the feathers of the RBR Vettel team. This is clearly a case of a driver performing in-spite of his team. Earlier in the week he proclaimed the Button/Hamilton partnership will end in tears. But from what I've seen I believe this whole RBR situation will end badly, very badly and I can see Webber leaving to Renault or Williams at the end of the year.Quote:

If i were vettle, I am not so sure I would be wanting it, unless it simply failed because some nut was not screwed
maybe next they will give webber's woman to vettel....
I´m not sure it was seb asking for it.
So Vettel has joined the club of Schumacher, Alonso and Hamilton of being favoured - how honorable. :) I guess almost any team has had situations, where they have had only one certain new car part and they give it to the so-called lead driver. The circumstances have put RBR into a bit of an embarrassing situation in this case, but after a bit of thinking there shouldn't be anything surprising about their action. Although if I was Horner, I'm not sure I would have rushed to give a new wing to the lead driver after it has already failed and the cause hasn't been properly examined.
If there were two races left and Vettel had a better chance to win the championship, then he should be favored. But there are 10 races left to go and they are separated by only 12 points, so there's no excuse for taking Webber's wing if the drivers are truly treated equally. I don't have a problem with Red Bull favoring Vettel (they're free to run the team as they see fit), but I have a problem with them lying about it and re-signing Webber with the promise that he will be treated equally.
