That looks to me like a classic touring car tap. These are to be found on a very regular basis in a lot of touring car and closed wheel series. Almost every time you see a car turning sideways when they close to another car the cause is usually the same its just a matter of identifying the culprit.

In this case it will almost certainly be contact between Howard's left front corner and Martin's right rear. The only question is who is most at fault and the in car cameras' should tell you who's steering was pointed which way.
Having said that I am not sure how close Howard was to the wall which will also be a factor.
