I feel like they're babysitting Vettel and are scared to tell him he's not number 1, the accident may seem more innocuous than the red bull ones (azerbaijan, or all the way back to Turkey) but it almost seems dumber in that case because it is so unnecessary and wasn't even in a braking zone yet or anything, he just looked like someone falling asleep at the wheel.

That drag race at the end felt so weird watching it in the cockpit cam, like there was a lack of a sense of speed because they were so well matched but it almost looked like Hamilton wasn't trying to pass him, just a weird perspective when there's no more acceleration.
