Same. Especially when his car was barely on the "track" as almost all of his car was on the inside curb.

But equally Vettel should have known full well you can't cut in that close at T1 at Spa. He had tons of space to play with on the outside. I agree though that Vestappen was chancing his arm an awful lot.

The only person I wouldn't blame it's Kimi. He was just caught in the middle!

Max is very quick. You can see that. But he's showing his age and inexperience. He needs to drop the attitude as well. Only a matter of time before he has a run in with Lewis on track.

The T1 dive was too ambitious, he lacks maturity and experience. Vettel left enough room for Kimi not expecting there to be two cars on the inside, turning into that corner he can only guestimate where Kimi is and how much room to leave trusting that Kimi is a good racer and won't to anything stupid.
The move to block Kimi down Kemmel straight was just stupid, first it's a clear block and second it was extremely dangerous, the only reason it wasn't a massive crash was because of Kimi. Maybe he should have done it to a lesser driver who would have hit him from behind so that he could learn a lesson.
