After the scary accident between Bottas and Russell at Imola yesterday, many people have blamed Russell for the incident. Personally I think its a racing incident. Bottas showed Russell the door which he is entitled to do, Russell had the overspeed and tried to go on the outside, but hit a wet patch, so he oversteered heavily, probably got some grass, meaning even more oversteer, so he hit Bottas. What are your thoughts?

Bottas did nothing wrong, he squeezed the gap to scare russell, but there was still a cars width, George just overestimated how far to the right valterri would be

This is my verdict: Before George committed himself to the right of Valtteri, there was literally no room on the left side. But I think he went way too wide and tapped the grass and possibly trying to leave space for Valtteri as well since both of them were going right. So my opinion is that George misjudged his trajectory and Valtteri probably didn’t pay too much attention on his wing mirrors (they were approaching a chicane obviously). So overall, I think it was a racing incident.

Racing incident with 59% Bottas fault and 61% Russel fault. Bottas just followed the racing line, yes, but he forgot about Russel and he continued closing the gap to overtake. Russel had the space but he didn't considered the acquaplanning and he went to much at right. Btw Bottas lost kinda nothing considering he was P9 that is nothing for a Mercedes while Russel lost 2 points that would have been extraordinary for his career. Sad incident

Russel panicked then binned it blaming everyone but himself, quite common he crashed in the pit lane, behind safety car, kimi, bottas etc.. he's a danger in the car and the only rookie to not learn from his mistakes compared to the others, I know what you're gonna say he smashed it in a merc but! Almost anyone can have 1 good race mo matter how average you are,

Kimi crashed into him not the other way round
