it's every time the same story. max doesn't really causes an accident, but he's always involved.
he will have to learn to assess when to back off if he wants to win more races.
I'm sure braking in the middle of a straight when everyone else is pushing flat out is the way to avoid accidents.

If anyone is to blame here, is Vettel - after all, he's the one who squeezed Max into a non-existent gap. But I would actually put it down as a racing incident: driving towards another driver to cut him off is the kind of maneuver that we're used to seeing all the time in starts, only that in this particular instance Sebastian hasn't realized that Kimi was there. It was a sliver of bad judgment and a lot of bad luck.
