he is trying to catch his car from spinning after he hits you. Sure you missed the corner, but he should have gotten a penalty.

Just a racing incident. Annoying but it happens in real racing too. Hard to say if he'd have got a penalty in real or not because of your lock up. Knowing modern day's rules he probably would have but just looks like a racing incident to me. Wouldn't call it the AI being stupid, rather making a "driver error", which is good to see occasionally, just unlucky for you that you were the one on the receiving end.

Just a racing incident, Kimi wouldn't have got a penalty in real F1 either. He was following the normal racing line, not even an error by him. Take it on the chin and move on

he made no attempt to avoid me.. i was still on track, i hadnt left it and he kept going like i wasnt even there and i was trying to make my tyres last a long time and with him spinning me out that ruined my race

Not a lot Kimi could do. That video would be much fairer if a full speed replay was provided, it looks like the distance between your mistake and running wide and the contact point is barely about 40 metres. Hardly enough time to make an attempt to avoid someone and it's an AI apponent. Take it on the chin and move on, racing incident.

I think in real life it would not happen, because it seems to me that Kimi is turning back his wheel as if Massa was not there (the AI may have think that Massa will accelerate as fast as him). A real driver could avoid the contact in my opinion.

Of course in real life a driver would and could avoid that contact easily. He also would have destroyed his front wing.

The AI tend to do that alot exiting that hairpin. Obviously it's their fault but its just how they are programmed. In terms of no penalty, well, it says alot about the penalty system.
