You guys seem also to forget , that they came from the straight at topspeed and the apex was VERY NEAR (left 90° turn) was only 100 meters in front of them !
This was not the right place , and not the right moment to try something like an overtake !
*IF* Daniel could pass Max . He was not able to make it , at that speed through the left turn .
AMEN !

Maybe you didn't watch the race after VES crashed out. But Bottas showed how to handle a situation where the car behind will overshoot the corner.
VET came in very late and didn't make the corner but Bottas didn't move in the braking zone, didn't cause a crash and didn't lose his place.
So it's a moot point of Daniel was or wasn't going to make the corner, VES didn't know how to handle the situation and caused a crash where others are able to race a lot more intelligently.
