Playing dirty is parking your car in Monaco to prevent being outqualified. Playing dirty is blackmailing your own team boss to get your teammate sabotaged. Playing dirty is purposefully ramming your opponent in the final round of the season to secure a title. Playing dirty is brake testing your opponent out of frustration for not playing your own games. Silverstone 2021 is always a flashy showpiece but Lewis going for an aggressive move and then understeering isn't "playing dirty", its a move he literally pulled off twice more in that very race and if you think anyone crashes purposely in that corner you're absolutely off it. All you need to see to understand Lewis is the final lap of Abu Dhabi 2021 where he knew he stood no chance against Max and yet he still didn't even think about crashing Max out. He could've easily done so when trying to cut back on the hairpin but instead he backed out, costing him the last small chance of winning that race and I have no doubt in my mind that had the roles been reversed Max would've absolutely tried to do so, prior rounds had already shown that. I'll remind you that in every title decider Michael Schumacher drove the opposition had to warn of him potentially crashing for his own gain AND THEY WERE RIGHT!! He makes contact and the first response by the commentary is: "That didn't work, you hit the wrong part of the car". THAT is unsportsmanlike and dirty driving.
