I was hoping for Webber to catch up to Vettel at the end. I was also hoping for some Senna/Prost moves between the two.

I like how red bull put him on 3 stop

Such a huge slap in the face

^RIGHT?
If i was him i would have stayed out and took my chances.
There was like 12 laps lets and he was 14.5 seconds ahead.
He could have just blocked the hell out of Vettle if he was to catch up.

What you're saying is RBR can win the Constructor's if they had McDonald in the other car instead of Mark.

Webber got screwed by his team. Sad to see his final season going this way.

You can't say they needed him to let Vettel by for vettel's chances for the WC. he's pretty much got it. But you never know, he may not finish a race for the rest of the year, so why chance it.

But even still... that's a pretty low blow

He might do it now to give a huge up yours to RBR. or just crash his own car.

That would be awesome if he crashed into Vettel. It was pretty funny hearing how nervous Vettel sounded over the radio during the race

how much is an F1 car worth, in terms of materials?
I searched around a bit on google but everyone has their own opinion and factor in different things when calculating the price.

Depends on the era. In the V10 max aero/TC years I've read about 6-7million.

In today's low(er) budget era I think 4-5 Million is likely.
