Sebastian Vettel has won the Malaysian GP after passing his teammate following an extremely hard fought battle 10 laps from the end. Mercedes impressed as well with Hamilton finishing on the podium, just ahead of his teammate Nico Rosberg.

No, not at all. Although I have no in-depth technical knowledge of how it specifically works - my understanding is that by changing settings on the wheel, you change the settings in the ECU - which then make the revenant changes to engine maps, throttle positions, fuel mix, damper, clutch etc... am I close? What I have not heard of - or know of in any other similar application - is a 'one button to rule them all'. I'm asking you to show that to me, please.
Uh, it can't change throttle position
What it can do though is modify the curve that maps throttle pedal position onto throttle application in the engine, within the limitations of 0 travel being engine idle, and full travel being full throttle.
What Bob says. Apologies, as I said, I don't fully understand all the switches and what they do, I have a general idea that they can control individual aspects of the car - that's probably a better way of saying it.
Lotus steering wheel also with a MULTIMAP rotary. Can we agree that the MULT on the RB wheel is most likely a MULTIMAP rotary with an abbreviated label?

No one ever suggested it didn't. Now, can you suggest where the dial must be turned to to engage entry 21 using an 8 option dial? Can you suggest why the team all stated that multi-21 was a team order, if it wasn't?
Calm down, it's only a few bits of plastic and metal going round in circles!
- RB confirmed there was a team order to hold station
- RB confirmed they ordered both drivers to turn their engines down.
We don't know if those were separate orders, or if "Multi 21" is merely a code word for both, or if it requires selecting certain rotaries using "2" and "1", or pressing "10" twice and "1" to show up "21" on the multifunction display.
For what it's worth my favourite is the multi function display input, and that the drivers know that setting is when used when they need to hold station.
