No one says don’t go for a gap, but if you do, you better stick it otherwise the alternative outcome is usually a collision of some sort and you will get criticized. It’s a very simple concept.
Agree, if he didn't lock up and LEW did not continue to turn (seing him coming) in but he did and if MAX didn't lock up then they probably would be both out..if you see my drift

I no understand
Because Tsunoda said about competitor Zhou and the Sauber team during qualifying for the Austrian Grand Prix: "these guys are f**king retarded".

Verstappen, on the other hand, criticized his own team, using foul language: transcript here.

Verstappen also criticized the race stewards, but without using swear words. Verstappen's race engineer Lambiase: "I understand the medical delegate needs to have a look at you, examine you, under parc fermé conditions when you get out.". Verstappen replied with sarcasm: "If they could send the medical delegate up to the stewards, maybe they can have a look if they are all okay."

After the Hungarian race Verstappen was asked for his response to comments that his criticism of the team, and the nature of his radio messages, had gone too far. His response: "They can all f**k off. I mean, of course, I’m annoyed but I've been annoyed before – sometimes you press in the radio to voice your opinion and that's what I did today hoping that, maybe, the second pitstop will be a better call. But it wasn't. But, for me, that is not distracting when I'm driving. Of course, I'm annoyed but you also then focus back on what you have to do and that's, of course, controlling the car.".

you're right about Nascar, i actually don't understand touring and stock car racing, people actually bump into their rivals and push them off track and it's fine!

The way I see it is that Max was committed to the turn and Hamilton made it hard for Max to make the turn, so Max had no choice but to lock up, and the rest is history

i'm sure you get as much as you give, if you bash people, maybe that makes you a target in the future, so maybe nobody wants to be that guy

my kids were disappointed when we toured the US, they went to an ice hockey match and the ref clamped down on all the fights, they really wanted to see fighting

Sorry they missed it. What's the old saying? "Went to a fight and a hockey game broke out."
