Mark Webber said he was dumbfounded as to Vettel's time. I think RBR may have taken a shave of performance from his car to prevent him beating Vettel, may have gone a little too far.
As I have said before I know people who have been in the industry, they say it happens more than we think.

It usually works for Button. However, in some recent races being crowded out has got him behind a slower car and cost him dearly. Petrov at the Nurburgring for example. He had a great start but on the outside of turn one he could do nothing, and once he gets stuck behind a slower car his race is ruined and he has no chance of a podium never mind a win. Though in that case it wouldn't have mattered due to his Hydraulics problem, the problem still persists. He got crowded out last year here aswell and lost many places as they went 3 wide into turn 1.

Well, Vettel is on pole and Mark is 6th. If they were only a place or 2 behind, I'd just say Vettel got a better lap in, but no, 5 places behind is a bit more than Vettel getting the upper hand, and especially considering Mark had been fairly quicker than Vettel the past 2 races, its not impossible. Plus, Mark is the main challenger for the title right now.

They're both still young. No point sending either of them to the top team yet. Besides which Webber is at least still among the top 6. It could be much worse
I'm not debating whether or not Webber deserves to be at RBR (he does imo). I was simply stating reasons why RBR wouldn't "shave some performance off" as Alex suggested.

Except Vettel is the clear #1 at RBR, and it would make more sense for it to happen to Webber after he beat Vettel 2 qualis in a row. Just to ensure that it doesn't happen again. All it takes is a couple of clicks more or less in a setup parameter for a tenth or two.

You are wrong. Webber shaved off performance from his own car
. Webber blames no DRS on the straight, cold tyres for poor qualifying

Well, on this occasion I must be wrong, but I said it at first because Webber stated he had no idea where the 6 tenths were from.
Button was a second of Hamilton's qualifying pace last race. I didn't hear anyone stating foul play there. I know he said he wasn't entirely happy with the car but still. I know people are looking for reasons to explain why Mark has been lacking in pace at times this season, but common sense suggests the team aren't sabotaging his car as it is little to no benefit to them.

You know, I saw the pitcrew working on Vettel's DRS in the pitlane. Wonder why not Webber as well, or maybe I mistook them, and Webber's DRS was being tinkered with.

So it's a Vettel win again then. Pole position for him guarentees it
