He ran him off the road and then gave no room on the next apex. Whether you want to argument semantics on the term close the door or not, the accident was 100% predictable. And even though it was Pastors fault, that doesn’t mean much when you’re in the barrier.

My point is - if you’re involved in a lot of accidents, even if they aren’t your fault, you have to look at why. Being in the right doesn’t mean you did everything you could or should do to avoid being driven into. It’s no use being in the right with a broken car. Lewis learnt that lesson and is smarter now than he was back then. The whole world seen that coming except Lewis. 2018 Lewis wouldn’t have put himself in the situation to be taken out like that.

Race craft isn’t just about making passes and what not. It’s about reading the situation. Lewis is good at that now. Vettel not as much. Max still treats every corner like a world championship is on the line.

I don't disagree, however on this one occasion, it's too easy to pose questions about Max because of his past history and deflect the responsibility from where it should lie - this time.

I you take a look at 2:20 here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cRTmuPOhaIA I think you may come to another opinion.
It looks like Vettel was substantially alongside and Max simply closed down on him and did not leave a car width.
To me Max would have the ability and vision to avoid this accident if he wanted to.

Max's attitude earlier in the clip after leaving the track and running into Raikkonen is also something to behold. "I tried to do the best I could, he just drives around the outside, he could have just waited for me to come back." (At 1:57 on the video)
Seriously?!

Max tried to make the corner as best he could to avoid a penalty, but unfortunately then clatters into Kimi.

Seb came from far too back in his move with Max

Max could have taken the emergency exit and still avoided a penalty (unless he would have gained an advantege).

His goal was not to avoid a penalty but to avoid being passed. It was very clumsy at least, if not intentional to block off Kimi.

What Verstappen probably meant was that if Kimi had waited for him to drift wide and cut back to the inside he probably would driven by him quite easily. The easy option for Max would've been to do what Bottas did. Instead he tried to remain on track as good as he could and after that he had full lock to the left.

I think a 5 second penalty was okay and if they hadn't given it I would've understood as well. For me it is hard to say though what is intentional and what is not from behind the keyboard.

I would argue it wasn't. When you give zero room to the guy next to you and get run over, it's your fault in my opinion. Verstappen (rightly in my view) simply doesn't let himself be pushed off the track. It's utterly ridiculous why such a thing is allowed in F1, but there you go.

No I still disagree on the Vettel incident. You're expecting Max to just open the door and let Vettel through? It was never going to happen. Max was entitled to take the line (IMO) and Vettel really has to wise up to the fact that other drivers (well some, anyway) just aren't going to jump out of his way any more because he's a former WDC and is driving a bright red car.

On this specifically -

This cuts both ways and a driver desperately trying to salvage his WDC title chances had the ability too. But he was just that bit too desperate.

As to the Raikkonen incident, I've never defended Max over that one.

Max came into F1 with a bullish attitude as a young kid, and everyone very quickly learned not to go near him while racing.
Sorry. I like him. He is making early Schumi balls ups, flexing his muscles and a lot of drivers steer clear of him. Yes, Vettel showed desperation at Spoon.
Max will be a WDC at some point.
At least he makes F1 worth watching..

Not for me. 'Very diplomatic "defense"...

From the same:

"But it was obviously a bit of an odd situation where we ended up. I don't think he purposefully tried to hit anybody, but this is what happened."

Raikkonen did not seem too angry about what Verstappen did at the chicane, although is clear that he would have liked to have been given a bit more room.

"I tried to go outside and leave as much as I could," added the Finn. "But he obviously came kind of off the track over the grass kerb part.

"Maybe he could not turn more, and maybe he just ended up there. In an ideal world, he should have left a bit more. But I don't know…"

Anywho, on to the USA...

There's just two rash decisions - both precipitated by being put under pressure, just by a teammate rather than a rival. Granted, not in a red car, but his history of rash decisions started in an RBR.

It's not hate at all. Nor is anyone saying that Vettel is overrated. You quoted me and I certainly didn't say that. I do believe that his desperation to keep the title fight alive has caused his racecraft to suffer but you're putting so many eggs in the pudding that you won't need to visit the little boy's room for a week.......
