At the time of the collision Max was steering hard right, this 1 sec after seeing Ham front wing level with his front right tyre. Max gave His usual choice , give way or collide.

Max is a hugely talented driver and potentially a world champion but if he ends up dead or killing someone then Horner and Marko will be partly to blame. Hopefully Max has more sense than those two windbags and hopefully his fans see the sense in ensuring he learns some caution.
This is spot on and I would only make one modification: IMHO, there is no such thing as a potential WDC. I've heard this said about too many drivers to count and they failed. Winning a Formula One race is a serious achievement. Winning multiple F1 races is an unbelievable achievement. Winning a WDC is one of the most difficult achievements in all of sports. Winning multiple is beyond belief. Winning 7 is unspeakable.

Max demonstrated that he won't be a WDC unless the RBR management team make a decision to be completely real with him but I don't have hope for that. Introspection is not the strong suit of that organization. There isn't a single stabilizing hand in management except for Jonathon Wheatley and I fear that he may be the odd man out.

The whole team is toxic and a blight on the sport.
