For all everyone loves to dump on Rommel, I don't think the German Army will blame him too harshly. He was not launching some wild charge into the desert while ignoring his logistics - he had the bulk of his forces solidly established in a prepared defensive position and the flanking counterattack from 15th Panzer was straight out of the textbook.
Ironically, it's the British who have pulled off a major victory by splitting their forces and sending an armoured spearhead on a deep strike into the enemy's rear areas with its flanks wide open and no supply lines to speak of.
Put another way, given that neither his intelligence nor his reconnaissance assets had warned him of the outflank and he believed that he was facing a Corps-level attack from the East, what should Rommel have done? The Italian view that he should have abandoned the Nofilia position and gone scuttling back to Sirte without waiting to be attacked is unlikely to find favour with the Heer. (Gen Gariboldi's belief that the Trento infantry division, with no support closer than Sirte, could somehow have managed a delaying action and orderly withdrawal against a numerically superior enemy with a massive advantage in armour suggests that someone hasn't learned the lessons of Operation Compass).
I suspect that the blame, at least in the German Army's eyes, will be applied to the Italians (for holding back the Ariete) and the Luftwaffe (for failing to spot the multi-division flanking force as it drove over tens of kilometres of open desert).
