10.g4!
Now, this move is routine, whereas at the time it was a startlingly new plan for White, who attacks with a kingside pawn storm. His once out-of-play rook now looks well posted on h1. He also intends to drive away Black's Knight on f6, prepares for the e4 move.
The moves10.g3 and10.Bd2 are too slow for this position.

Dual principles followed: Open the game when leading in development, and also when you own the bishop pair. For the pawn, Botvinnik gets two bishops versus two knights in an open position and the potential for a kingside attack - more than enough compensation.
20.Rd1
After this move black can get rid of white's light-squared bishop with 20...Be6 21.Bxe6 (21.Bb1 Bb3) Qxe6.
20.Bxf6?
In general, the two bishop advantage is worth half a pawn, while double pawns are only a minor disadvantage. You should also consider that white is a pawn down.
