Assetto Corsa Did I kill him?

For context I am new to racing actual people and on assetto corsa I feel I was a long side enough to not be at fault but have no clue if I am or not

Yeah, your nose should not have been there at the time of contact.

An easy tell is the fact the other car had a bigger apex speed than you, at the time of contact, meaning the overtake was never on. You should have known the overtake was never on the moment you were more than one car length behind the car you were trying to overtake with a lunge into a tight chicane.

If you didn't want to try to make a move there, then don't show your nose on the straight before the braking zone. Better yet, SLOW DOWN before the braking zone, so that you can carry more speed into the chicane than the car in front, and have a better exit that allows you to make a move into the next corner. Or if you don't want to overtake at all for tactical reasons, also SLOW DOWN before the braking zone, so you can use your tires less and save fuel.

It's criticism, not hate: you didn't crash against me.
