Evil tactics or aero flaw ?

[The Black Knight]

The similarity of these last two Red/Silver prangs is that the passing driver ran across the nose of the one being passed , taking the air off his front wing , causing a lock-up and subsequent collision .
You can't stop them going down the inside for a pass and you wouldn't want to do so at all .
You also can't stop them from going around the outside , either .

But , you can take into consideration , when judging the results of incidents such as these last two , or three , if you include RoGro and Carlos , that the guy inside is sometimes as much the victim if he loses , suddenly , the downforce on his front wing .

If you don't , then the guy inside , if he's behind at all , will have to back out of it much earlier to avoid the lock-up .
That could leave us with much less chance of them being side-by-side in the corners .

I don't want that .

Neither do I but the point I’m making here is that Kimi should not have lost downforce in his case. In France, Sebastien was directly behind Lewis so he was always going to lose downforce. Kimi, on the other hand, was alongside Lewis and there was no hole punched in the air he was driving through so he has no excuse for his lock up.

Sebastien should have known better to brake earlier. Kimi should have known better as to not lock up.
