Well maybe those people should question whether the WDC truly is the blue ribband?

Actually, I happily accept that it is and historically always has been, borne out of the popular admiration of drivers as latter day knights, risking all for fame, fortune, glamour and girls.

If we accept that, then why can we not accept that motorsport is a team sport with an individual objective, and as such it is perfectly legitimate for the team to favour their best chance of victory.

Here's a question. Are any of those who dislike team orders in F1 fans of cycling?
