Thats exactly what I considered it to be, a collision, not an accident. The two wheel bangs at the start of the Chinese GP were of similar nature, and they weren't put down as accidents either.
Its a grey area, but I have to take a consistent stance. For me, something has to break off, force a pitstop, or force a retirement for it to be classified as an 'accident'. Otherwise something negligible like the Button/Perez contact in Bahrain last year would be classified as an accident, which wouldn't make much sense.
This is only how I stand on it. It is of-course subject to change if any administrators think otherwise, or if yourself or others can convince me to change my viewpoint
