Unlike random people on the internet, they have a professional reputation to consider, so they can't always turn a blind eye to everything they see.

And I'm fully aware that those random people on the internet can also claim the saintly status of having never raced and made a mistake, and only the opposition is ever a wrongdoer.

All the drivers, even the greats, get it wrong sometimes. That's what happened to Lewis today.
Lewis did get it wrong yesterday but to isolate blame on Lewis alone is not fair because Max also got it wrong. He could have gone much wider at Copse and given Hamilton more room. They both erred, and Max paid the price.

Otmar Szafnauer immediately called it a racing incident. Initially I thought Hamilton was to blame but then seeing that Verstappen didn't give him enough room as well in Chandhok's analysis made it clear to me it was a racing incident. While I fully understand your position that Hamilton got it wrong, I don't understand why you can't see that Max also got it wrong.
