How many car failure related DNFs have Webber and Vettel had respectively since they've been team mates at RBR?

Thanks in advance to anyone with the answer.

Excluding retirements caused by collisions (Webber has had a surprisingly large amount of these) I make it:

Vettel: 7 (2009 = 1, 2010 = 2, 2011 = 1, 2012 = 2, 2013 = 1)
Webber: 5 (2009 = 0, 2010 = 0, 2011 = 0, 2012 = 2, 2013 = 3)

All data from season summaries on wikipedia.

See! Conclusive proof that Webber never had a fair crack of the whip and was given substandard components to work with!!!11!one!!

You'd be surprised how many brake, kers and spark plug failures Vettel has had to drive around.

Yet only ever come to light after the podium. Mark's problems are heard from the shakedown lap to the grid on a Sunday morning on team radio.

How many pit stop faux-pas have they had for each car? Webber has only been given three wheels twice this year alone.
True, I don't disagree. But that is down to whoever releases the team radio for broadcast.

4.5 year score card
Sebastian Vettel: 40 issues (33 mechanical issues, 3 team order, 2 team-mate clashes, 2 significant pit stop issue), 8 leading to a DNF
Mark Webber: 47 issues (35 mechanical issues, 3 team orders, 2 team-mate clashes, 7 significant pit stop issues), 5 leading to a DNF

Up to date.

Pretty much puts the whole ''Webber is being sobataged'' myth to bed.
