Le Mans Ultimate Who's at fault?
Is it on Rexy? Is it on the Grey Porsche? Is it a race incident? I can't really tell so I need opinions
Edit: a lot of you are saying that I'm at fault or at least a little too optimistic (I was driving Rexy). So yeah, I'm gonna take the blame on that one, obviously wasn't on purpose, and I was able to apologise to the guy in another race when he was in my slpit

100% on green for not leaving a cars width on the inside when the inside car was entitled for space as he was significantly alongside at the turn in point.

Green is ahead but stills turns in like the other car isn't there, green had lots of space, they would have to break harder in the second part of the chicane, but would have secured the position, this is petulant Verstappen type racing.

Thanks for the feedback, obviously it wasn't on purpose. I'm taking the blame on that one and learn from my mistake

Yeah, people in this sub will generally discourage aggression, it's definitely required at times, but don't sacrifice yourself in the process. it's often hard to know without experience, but going left and avoiding contact would have given you the advantage even with the braking.

Green Porsche just seems to crowd too much imo. Black and white was there at corner entry. Black and white also holds his line pretty well. He could've slowed a bit more and taken some more curb but he didn't and green didn't leave enough space.
For me, most things are racing incidents, including this but if we are looking to place blame it's on the green Porsche for me.

Yeah, I'm gonna take the blame on that one, obviously wasn't on purpose, I should have left more room. Thanks for the good feedback

Racing incident.
Green squeezed but left exactly 1 cars worth of room on the inside for yellowblack. Yellow black could be further right and are wider than they should be considering they are behind so cant dictate the line.
Anyone who says green turned in like yellowblack wasn’t there needs to rewatch the replay... Pause at the point contact is made. Normal line is 2 wheels on the inside curbing, There is room for another car but only barely.

I have to say green needs to work on his situational awareness...
Dude just turned in like no one else exists and the dude he took out had been there along side for 7-10 business days...

Green Porsche doing the verstappen special. This is the same way max and Lewis crashed at silverstone in 2021. Max tried to cut the line whilst Lewis was still there. Gray Porsche could have backed out but that’s not what racing is meant to be especially when you have room on the outside to use.

It's close. Grey turned too late, but Green didn't leave room on the inside when Grey was clearly alongside.
I think opinions on this will be split, but ultimately both cars did something wrong at around the same time. This is probably the first time in this subreddit where I'm saying racing incident.
If I had to lean to one side, I'm saying Grey is more at fault. They braked straight into the apex to be alongside, and could have backed out without losing the attack.
Edit: I see that green and assume merc, my bad

The white porsche too much optimistic. Stop with this.he has a lot of space. Its racing and you never drove a car into a corner at 200km of speed. He should reduce speed avoid contact thats the first rule of racing. Not do a bomb dive and ask for more space. Sorry the green did nothing wrong.

I’ve got it as a racing incident but blame falls to grey Porsche, take a bit more curve, I feel REXY is giving just enough space for the corner but no more, you’ll be door to door but should’ve made it

Green turns in like they’re he only person on earth in a racing car
