We see incidents like this almost every race, they just dont happen to be between 2 people fighting for the championship at the end of a race. Regardless, if you can find the part of the rule book where it states how long he has to lift off for or how long he has to stay behind after giving the place up, then you could easlily prove your argument.
And if you do prove it, I want Kimi penalised for doing the the same thing, the only difference was he didnt make a place, he just made up ground.

the angle makes lewis look further ahead but he is still ahead going into the chicane. they both braked, both locked up, lewis more so causing him to run deeper. both turn in, lewis is squeezed out and has to take the escape road to miss kimi. lewis then slows, kimi goes past, kimi then brakes early due to the wet track, lewis brakes later and overtakes. in a dry track lewis probably wouldnt have overtaken kimi at turn 1.
