one the white line imo.
Definitely on the grass as Hamilton is having to steer right to stop the car skidding off left. You can also see his front wheel is past Jenson's right.

I think Button wanted to close the door early or use the racing line earlier, but he couldn't see that Hamilton is that fast. HAM thought he would surprise BUT, but he didn't. -> Racing accident. Simple as that.
Looking in the mirror twice does not mean to see all what's behind.

We see racing with disabled DRS and you complain? No words for that ...
regulars-table.net?

Let's just hope for some racing without SC ...

he should have lifted long before that point there was no way he was ever going to make that pass

Only if the other driver intends to run you off the road (which is against the rules). Presumably you don't like it when racing drivers... race?

Finishing races is important, but racing is more important.

I believe you also have to be half way past the car for them to have to give you room. I don't mind the racing but I don't feel bad Hammy hit the wall either he took a move he had no chance of making unless Jensson let him by

By that point it was too late and he probably would have lost control if he'd lifted. He was already having to countersteer due to his wheel being on the grass.

That's plenty to be in a very dangerous situation in the wet, especially when the other half of the tyre is well and truely on a painted line.
