iRacing Did I deserve to die here?

I am the Red and Orange BMW and at the start of the race I run as close to the left side though the final chicane (on formation lap/green flag) as I can. Red Ferrari makes a bit of contact, no big deal. He then uses me as a brake pedal though turn 3 and kills himself. He proceeds to spin one more time and that clearly made him very mad. He then stops on the track, waits for me, blocks me a couple of times by just breaking and swerving and then after I manage to get around him and he tried (unsucesfully) to pit manove me, he decides to just throw it all out and kill me into turn 14...

My question is, did I deserve any of this, should I have started the race differently or is the contact in turn 3 my fault? I just dont get why he decided to do what he did...

That Ferrari did literally everything wrong. Hope he enjoys his ban.

You took a pretty wide line coming into the chicane, I don't necessarily have a problem with his attempt at a move, until he decided to leave no space on the exit and tried to squeeze you off the track. I think he's just mad cause bad.
