The sequence of events is important. He was FIRST in the grass oand only then he got alongside. That's not how shit works.

Yeah, I don't think so mate. This image clearly shows Lewis alongside and he isn't off the track. He's on the edge of the track. No question, Nico's fault.

Nico pulled the Schumacher One-Continuous-Move and this time an accident was the result.

should have gone to spec-savers. The front wheel is blantantly obviously on the astro-turf, which, when I last checked was quite slippery and no part of the track. Stweards disagree too. It was deemed a racing accident with no penalties handed out. Which is good for Lewis, because after two reprimands already, else he would started the Monaco GP in Nice.

He is alongside Nico and at that point it's up to Nico to give him room. Nico doesn't know if Lewis on on Astro turf or not at that point. He does know he is alongside him. Nico's fault. Should have given Lewis room.

So basically, racing rules are changed now: Go off track as long as you end up alongside, the other guy has to give way? Sorry, but he was off-track BEFORE he got alongside. Wrong order of events. And how much more evidence do you need? Lewis apologized, Lauda said he was wrong and Stewards did not deem Rosberg worthy of punishment. Your point, please?

All this happens at over 250 kmh, its ridiculous to measure at pictures that for 27 hundreds of a second somebody was 34 milimiters alonside another one.

Lewis wasn't off the track he was on it.
Lauda is an idiot and point you've made on here many times. The Stewards deemed it a racing incident and Lewis apologised because they crashed out, he didn't take the blame for it. Rosberg did the same. So let's state it as it is and not as you usually do to suit your agenda.

My point is: Rosberg was at fault. The image above shows that. Lewis was alongside him ON the track.

That works both ways too. Lewis went for a gap that was quickly closed and at that speed it meant it was very difficult to abort. This is why it was deemed a racing incident with both drivers at fault.
