Still can be viewed as ambiguous (what exactly does "slow sufficiently" or "comfortable" mean). But I do generally agree with that approach.

I think however what you are missing is the point that the overtaking driver should also know what is going on, or might potentially happen. And that this should happen before the leading driver provides the opportunity. I firmly believe that if Lewis had more information at his disposal, things would likely have played out differently.
