Unlike Max though, they don't let off the brake pedal to be "side by side" they are genuinely there... This is another part of the equation that doesn't get factored in.
If Max doesn't let off the brakes, he doesn't even look in contention for the corner at all (clearly behind) but since he does let it off, he cannot make the corner. Choose 1 - make the corner or don't let off brakes.
If that helps you sleep, go ahead and don't continue reading.
But if you look at how Piastri took the corner in the quali vs how he took it in the race it's pretty clear he deliberately ran wide. Why would he run wide and compromise the exit of T2 if he thought Max would never make the corner? Maybe his post race interview gives a hint, where he explicitly states "if it was roles reversed it probably would've looked identical". It's almost as if Piastri knew he couldn't leave Max any space because Max would make use of that space the same way he would've used that space if the roles were reversed and Max had left him space. I wonder who is more right? A random F1 viewer on Lemmy stating Max would've have made the corner, or Max (who decided to try to take the corner) and Piastri (who clearly cut him off to make sure he couldn't make the corner) thinking he would've made the corner. Definitely a tough choice here.
Oh and thank you for proving my point about how it's always Max's fault.
Good video summary here by Jolyon Palmer

The telemetry shows both of them rushed into the corner because they were both fighting to be first into the apex, that's the game. Max didn't slow down because Piastri didn't slow down. It was a great move by Piastri, why do you have to diminish it by not acknowledging what Piastri did. Does Verstappen live rent free in your mind that you have to make everything about Max?
Take a breath, get afk a bit mate, stop making this personal and keep it on the topic at hand.
Until next week!
