Can't think of many circumstances where a driver doesn't benefit from holding up his team mate. Even if a driver won't finish in the points, any points you deprive your team mate only helps how the overall points tally for you looks. In other words, even if Lewis was not going to score anything here, he still would have wanted to hold up his team mate to reduce the deficit.
Despite this, most drivers do the right thing for the team and obey the orders.
