[QUOTE=Mike Harte;3691431]Richard, I don't think that we will agree about this because the only way that Hamilton could win this championship, taking into consideration the track positions of both of them, was by making sure that Rosberg lost. And by doing that he would have also made his employers lose as well, which is why Paddy Lowe instructed him to pick up his pace. Which he refused to do!]

And quite right, too. It was unwarranted interference by the team in a race for the ultimate prize in F1. They had already won the constructors' title and were assured of the drivers', too, whoever won. They wanted a 1-2, Lewis wanted a 1-4, and he was in the driving seat – literally and metaphorically. Any proper racer would have done the same, period.
