On such a high-speed roadway/track with so many turns and clipped apexes, I assume the rules include only passing on the left, and only passing when a driver has signaled right, acknowledging your presence and desire to pass.
Sure, the BMW driver should have been more aware...but to the BMW driver's defense, if you're setting your car up for the next fast-approaching apex, you're not always looking in your rearview mirror every second to see who's coming up fast. You're positioning your car for the correct line through the turn.

Read my assessment again, we are both siding with the BMW driver.
During TF passing is only allowed on the left, but no signal is required by either driver.
