There are differences between fast drivers and sensible drivers. Hamilton, Vettel, Alonso etc are sensible drivers. They have a sense of what is correct to do, even if it involves less morally correct ways. But there are no unwritten laws in racing, so you've got to do what you've got to do to win a race or a in this case a car. Maldonado was a fast driver, he could win races, but did not know how to plan ahead and think what to do. Hence this many crashes.

There are also no anti-cheating penalties in RR3, unlike real life. So that is a part of racing and the one who races best and sensibly (when to corner cut etc) wins.
