no contact between Max and Lewis

I tended to thing this all showed the 'British Bias' of the sky team. From the first replay they tried to hang Max out to dry with no evidence - perhaps some history between the two. Even later bringing up the overtaking guidelines. No evidence of them touching just .....Lewis went wide. Lewis post race said he just saw Max's nose up the inside and moved off track to let him through . Yes it was aggressive from Max as everyone has gotten to know. But I though it was poor by the Sky team to blame Max for that even when there wasn't any evidence of it.
I guess they hadn't taken into account that Lewis had checked out completely at that point.

But if Lewis wasnt aware, and stayed in his normal line. Lewis would spun out because of the Max.

And if LH didn't move over maybe Max doesn't go through with the move.


My point is instantly the Sky crew said there must have been a touch with no evidence other than some history between the two. The kinda thing I would expect from fans. Even when it looked doubtful there was contact

LH defended Max really post race and said he didn't really remember it just saw the nose of Max's car and chose to let him though, maybe it was just how downbeat he was this weekend and decided MV was quicker and to let him through. Just thought it was poor that it was their first reaction and they didn't seem to want to let go of it.
