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 !

Not saying it was a great move, but at the same time there was another driver involved in this incident who could have also done something different to avoid the accident. And that other driver knew a lot more about the situation than Checo or Max did alone since he could see that he was already beat by both RB. We all saw the three wide issue, and so did Charles, but I don't think Checo did. I think Checo assumed that Max had a clear lead on Charles and they were only going 2 wide into T1.
