That would have given Charles room to move over.
That was Charles' accident to avoid, imo. He didn't, and no fault to him, it was clearly a racing incident.

Because Checo was on the outside in T1 . This wasn't the ideal race line to run into T1 with his speed .
Checo's speed was too fast on the outside , and the long straight came very quickly to an end .
So Checo had 3 possibilities :
1- Brake too late , locking up and lose positions
2- Going straight through because there was no room on the inside
3- Turning too sharp into T1 to make it with 2 other cars on the inside of T1 (suicide mission)!
Checo's choise was possibility-option 3..
But actually there was no room for option 3 , because it was occupied by Charlie and MAX .
We all witnessed what followed ! ...:Too bad for Checo !
