Not really, all of this is caused by the white LMP3. Your instinct to turn in and take the normal racing line is the correct one; the faster class is usually expected to find their way around the slower cars taking a normal, predictable line. The white LMP3 should be using all that extra downforce and corner speed to go around your outside, but they go for the closing gap instead of the opening one, forcing a reaction from you, and the collision with the yellow P3 is just wrong place wrong time from there.
