I agree. His crash was very weird. Brain fart?

I don't know. It's very strange to see the backend try and overtake the frontend in mid-corner like that.
To quote Brundle 'I bet it surprised him'. Yes IMHO I bloody bet it did. The onboard was strange as there was no over-correction or any strange steering at all. It just suddenly went bye-bye with the only possibility being that it was due to a down-shift.

He was too agressive and the tyres were cold. Those cars have more downforce but when you lose it, you simply lose it. It was a driver mistake. Like Schumacher used to say, "I only make a mistake per season, today I have already done it".

Hamilton said afterwards that it was his fault.

Oh no doubt it was Hamilton's fault. I still bet it surprised the hell out of him though as there were no warning signs.

The floor bottomed out on him because the tyres were not warm enough.

Naughty, naughty tyres.
