Three times with three teams?

2002: F1 rules against team orders are instated after Ferrari order Rubens Barrichello to let Michael Schumacher past to win.

Monaco 2007: McLaren order Lewis Hamilton not to challenge Fernando Alonso for the race win.

Singapore 2008: Renault order Nelson Piquet to crash to cause a safety car period that helps Alonso win.

Hockenheim 2010: Ferrari order Felipe Massa to let Alonso past for the win.

Fernando does seem to benefit a lot from this.
