Totally Max's fault. He was overtaken, he should have let Ocon go.
The evidence is that Max actually went entirely off the track after the overtake which shows you he was carrying too much speed and Ocon had the correct line and breaking point.

MODERATORS
Maybe a Red Bull should not let itself get overtaken by an Alpine. Max is the first to just overtake during qualifying when he thinks others are too slow.
Those things will always happen. But Ocon wasn't in the situation to play such games...
But Ocon wasnโt in the situation to play such gamesโฆ
Verstappen ended up on the front row, so his qualifying was not ruined at all. In qualifying it's the duty of the slower car to get out of the way.
Alpines fault for sending out Ocon close enough to get slipstream from Max and then Ocon for trying to capitalize on it.
