Way I read the pace...Max never had the pass through the corners but dove in to be"ahead" on the first... which cost him pace on the cutback. He'd probably have had a good exit and for sure under drs a pass without the game playing. But he had to overtake early rather than being patient. Could Lewis have given his overt aggressiveness room? Sure. He risked a puncture as it went and he definitely lost position... It wasn't smart. But neither is letting someone get away with shit.
I'm actively working through stuff on passing and rules, because I struggle with it on track. So I may be wrong (note... I also only sim d2d because I'm not comfortable I'd be a safe driver in meatspace yet). But I think the penalty was spot on. Max never had that pass in the corners without Lewis giving it to him. He knew Lewis wouldn't. He has the season well wrapped. I think he was gunning for Lewis as payback for whatever wrongs he feels deserve payback.
