LH had the speed and room to pass, once his wing passed the rear of Nico he was in the right and performing a legal pass. Nico was clearly in the wrong and the only reason this was deemed a racing incident is bc they are teammates and Mercedes coached them through the review with the steward to take a 50/50 blame of the incident. Rosberg made the mistake, Rosberg compensated with an aggressive and careless move = Rosberg was at fault no room for interpretation.
Not going to lie, the video analysis did sway me a little from thinking it was just a racing incident.
