I'm over the cheating twerp winning now, so roll on next seasons shenanegans!
I'm only voting because you mentioned Lance
His achievements should not be taken away from him; everyone was at it [doping] at the time so he won fair and square

Webber at some point was assisting him... But.....the expert knowledge though of the Red Bull team, the sharp eye of Horner and Newey knowing exactly what was going on at any one time, one if them will likely have spotted this way before the nerd on YouTube did, and probably during the race. A hidden gamble from Red Bull perhaps if it was so, hoping it'll get unnoticed?
Could this then get messy with Red Bull trying to find some infraction by Alonso in all the seasons previous races should a result change go ahead

I think after thinking about this, there would be a more ferocious challenge from Ferrari and im sure they themselves have the technology to slow that footage down, exposing a waved green flag from the marshalls booth. It is far too blurred to make it out, whether one was being waved at all. But there was certainly no yellow flag.
I take it all back Seb, you're the champ.

That was a completely different incident. In fact, there seem to be three examples that looked like Vettel may have overtaken over yellows, but fortunately/unfortunately depending on your point of view, it looks like he's in the clear.
