Hello, today I experienced a little chaos in one race which ended with a contact captured at the end of this very short video.



And I am not sure if it was "dirty driving" from the blue car or not. What is your opinion?

Orange 21 was leaving a bit of a gap, next Red 10 seemed to hesitate in the corner, Orange 21 spun out on their own.
last corner, Blue 15 took their chance, idk 50/50 as neither was going to give any ground

The Blue 15 was a bit aggressive all the way through, but the other cars were leaving openings.

Would need to see a longer video on how the Red and Orange cars were taking the previous corners with Blue following, if they could see the cornering weaknesses they were going to try to take advantage, idk about it being dirty driving, the corner when Orange spun out they were trying to take out Blue and in the final corner Red cut in too deep and knew Blue was going to be there.
 
Looks like just a racing incident, no malice.
Red went wide on last corner and overcorrected and incident occured.

The blue car also saw that the red car had nowhere to go, but it drove straight toward it, even though the red car was ahead and had the right of way.

My opinion is that there was no malicious intent; it was a very intense fight.
 
For me, blue car was faster at the end, it has a better line, and red car was going too wide in the right curve, making it in a bad position to take the last left turn, so for me the blue car was supposed to win anyway.

I think blue car wanted to take advantage of the situation, maybe a better move would have been to lift the throttle a little bit, and wait for the red car to make the turn (slower), and overtake on the left ?

Anyway, not a big deal, no big ramming, just quite intense action, and anyway the red car was probably not going to make it first, considering the big speed gap. Also, blue car seems to give some rooms to other cars between 0:18 & 0:28, doesn't look like a rammer.
