crimsonstag84 said:They were perfectly lined up at the braking point. Hamilton braked early because he was on the dirty side of the track and used all the inside line space. Why blame him? It was a decent chance, even if not a guaranteed one. 🙂
The overtake was basically "if the other guy doesn't move, someone's going to crash." Just like most of Hamilton's other moves lately. 😁
Hamilton enters the corner faster, and he's doing it over the dirty part of the track. Naturally, nowhere near the racing line. If the other driver doesn't yield the line, a collision is almost inevitable.
He pulled the exact same stunt at the British Grand Prix. Only there, the App factor was even more intense. A much "heavier" corner, aggressive braking, zero chance to back out if the driver ahead closes the door. And yeah, that driver was Felipe Massa.
At the end of the day, IMO, it's just a racing incident. What should they do? Ban "closing the door"? That would be ridiculous.
