In real racing (like F1) a driver who goes inside where there isn't room runs the risk of wrecking or incurring a penalty. There is no form of racing I can think of where forcing inside another racer is considered "owning the line" especially when you come from behind and stuff it in there.
I'm sorry, but if the guy you are coming up on is doing his best at the moment to race on the line at a given speed, stuffing it in there in a corner is prolly not the smartest racing decison in any circumstance. You are wiser to follow him through the turn and trust that he will give way in a better, safer manner than being shoved wide by your inside manuever. But if you think bold inside moves are OK, don't be pissed when someone slams the door on you for doing it too many times.
