It's a bloody corner and the car needs to turn! That's not called moving under braking. It's making the turn to the corner for which a driver ahead is entitled to. Max just didn't have any control having carried so much speed. A Classic dive bomb and crashing into a driver who was making the corner in a controlled manner.
Multiple things can be true at the same time.
It was a dive bomb, yes because Max was never turning at the apex, might have even not been able to stay within the track, like he didn't on outside of turn 3 earlier.
Lewis is turning in too early, yes because he simply is, should Max rely on other drivers taking evasive action against his bombs? Max kinda put himself in that position, he should know Lewis isn't going to ever give him space.
Lewis is also moving under braking and he's not allowed to do that, he chose the outside of the corner and within 30m he's sitting in the middle of the track.
I will say the precedent with SAI and PIA in Miami is that SAI having a slightly drift and just touching PIA, with no damage or time loss, from the inside gave SAI a penalty.
Lewis washed is one of the worst takes I've heard this year, he's the best.
