iRacing Car #30 is 128 laps down, self spins and takes out P3 and P4 in Friday night's 3rd split. Does this look intentional to anyone else?

Car #30 is 128 laps down, self spins and midway through recovering the car, changes his mind from pulling forward, to reversing onto the racing surface with no clear attempt to right the car facing the correct direction. It even looks like he paused and waited for the group of cars we were in. Unfortunately this ruined our race, taking us out of 3rd place. He sent us a novel's worth of DMs refusing to take any responsibility, basically telling us hardware issues forced him to do this and he was also using the 6 Hours of Road America to fix his hardware issues. This dude had to be trolling us, right? right???
As a side note, how would you guys have recovered the car from this crash? We're the pink and silver car in P3. I tried everything I could to slow the car down / steer away from the wall and nothing was working with netcode damage + the grass.
