the rules say do not continue at race pace untill the other one catches you up

race pace to me means , at a certain speed where you are competitive..
the fact that he could overtake kimi the second he let him pass, means he was competetive, and thus , to fast

IF he had gone off with gravel, he would have lost seconds... he did not, and did not slow down to compensate the advantage of the cut...

we'll see what Fia says in a few weeks, but my bet is , Massa keeps the win...
