He asks a completely legitimate question. Juan Pinball was obviously faster
than Michael at that point. Why risk both their races with a dangerous,
blunder-headed pass like that??

Michael said "I'd have done exactly the same thing".
Or did you miss that one?
No. He conveniently ignores it. As, of course, does Brendan...

The stewards already did... "racing incident", no further measure.

So what did they say happened then?

[...]

The stewards did decide. After examining the evidence
of drivers and team representatives, and seeing
video and telemetric evidence the stewards decided that
"the incident requires no further judicial action".

Aye. Michael is "incredible" when it suits but also "not credible,"
when that suits.

In this case what he did was clearly within the rules as was what JPM did,
my only question about what JPM did was it really necessary?

YFI
Why?
Because Fritz is a complete tosser?

Dangerous, I'm not convinced (not that it would ever stop him);
unclean, obviously; blunder-headed, certainly.

I think you're the FI.

Some folks appear to thing passing belongs in a sport known as motor
"racing". Others are content to watch a parade decided by the software
engineers, as in launch control. Or at least, as long as one's favourite
driver and/or team is at the head of the parade. Which may be the reason
why Rindt, Peterson and Villeneuve G are revered, despite their number
of wins being nowhere near those of Schumacher.
Gee... I wasn't aware that, amongst his many other alleged atrocities
(SEE Cunliffe, et al.), Schumacher wrote the current technical rules.

....It's always seemed to me that he simply mastered them.

He is, to anybody with at least one functioning eye, the standard by
which to measure any contemporary F1 driver. His mastery of the present
tech rules is not arguable. But other drivers, far less successfull in
statistical terms, have become part of Formula One legend for very
different reasons than mastery of tech regs and having an obedient team
mate.
