[ROUND 4 TROIS RIVIERES] FCR vs FOR

Xosé Estrada · May 2, 2011

Disadvantaged car: Jesper Taulborg
Team: FCR

Reported car: Miko Korkiakoski
Reported Team: FOR

Description:

Miko gives Jesper a nudge and send Jesper of the track. The car was a mess after this collision. Especially for the first corner, a little care is needed. Its a long race.

I dont see any contact also. Just braked to late. No penalty.

Pitty this was reported, we looked at it in detail on the replay and although it was very close i couldn't find any prove of there beeing a contact.
Jesper line was not interrupted, nothing of this car movements shows that there is any contact made.
However we see him braking later then Mikko, who already braked very late, we can only conclude that Jesper was to late on the brakes them beeing cold. Since Mikko was on the inside Jesper should have braked earlier and take the corner behind Mikko regaining his place without any incident.
Also he didn't waited to let the cars through but reversed with cars coming, causing more carnage.

Pitty this happened, but part of racing, and since no contact was made there is no incident. No penalty from FO

no penalty from GBK

No penalty from WBR as there is no clear contact. We belive that Mikko might have been lagging or maybe Jesper and there for the lenght of the car was longer then it is visable and there for FCR felt like there was contact. But such things can't be controlled or expected by drivers at such moments.

didn't we agree not to discuss but simply state the verdict? Especially showing counter videos was deemed a no no.

The team spokesman of the involved teams has the right to add more info or let us know his point of view on the matter same time he posts his team veredict, just as Tom did.
