Watch the incident CLOSELY.....
Lewis exits the corner on the 'correct line' (near to the outer kerb). Fernando continues with the overtaking manouvre started earlier, plots his 'line' and then Hamilton contunies to move 'right' on Fernando crossing the 'line' to which Fernando has committed himself. Fernando has no further front end grip available to him and understeers into Lewis.
Standard racing incident. Neither was attempting to hit the other. Fernando lost more than Hamilton in the incident becasue of the pit stop. Over-all, pretty much a case of 'natural justice'. As the over-taking driver, it's Fernando's duty to avoid Lewis.
