Vettel was simply being a racing driver. There was no reason for him not to pass Webber. It's the second race of the season, it's not like Webber needed the points to take the title. This has cost Redbull nothing.
I understand they were told to race up to the final pitstop. But they came out practically side-by-side, so the racing continued.
Mark Webber should have responded by staying ahead of Vettel, not sulking that the better driver won.

Oh, come on. Words are cheap. Hamilton MUST have been aware of what was going on -- he was being gifted third. He could have easily told the team over the radio to let Rosberg move past, or simply move aside for him. Instead he chose to take third.
Rosberg was simply better than Hamilton today. A predictable pattern we will see repeated throughout the season.
