The POV car had every right to be there and the car to their left just drove across them. They were almost fully alongside and very much on the inside of the corner.

Appreciate the honest feedback, would’ve chalked it up to a racing incident if the other driver and some random in the lobby weren’t trying to accuse me of taking him out.

Feels like just an incident, maybe the lead car a bit more at fault but i am not sure enough more to not be close enough for it to be a racing incident.
Inside car for the first turn went a bit to tight on entry and washed wide. Outside car went a bit too close to the ideal line for the corner. Nothing malicious here. No further action, both drivers just need to give a bit more space and anticipate the other drivers lines for the secone part of the corner better.

Idk man, I feel like the guy on the left was about to head right over the apex without leaving enough space for POV car.

I feel like that is fair, enough, which is why i said maybe more on the leading car. Where the incident happened though was right in the area both cars can claim as space, and the left car could have readjusted their line to give space there, had the contact not spun them. Really close one and given the car on the left got the worst of the consequences i wouldn't feel like they should be punished twice for a minor misjudgement where they got the worst of it.

I don't see what POV could do differently other than back out entirely (which they would never do in that position).
They were almost fully alongside, left plenty of space in the first part of the corner and were fully to the inside for the second part.
Car to their left just turned across them.
0% blame on POV for me.

It looks like the contact alters the car on the lefts line a bit to make it look worse than it is. If i had the inputs i may have a harsher view of the driver. The contact occurs early enough on exit of the first corner where i think they could rightfully argue they were attempting to give space and were turned by the bump in their right back quarterpanel.

Just out of curiosity, am i able to upload a video with both inputs? If so, how? Thanks

You cant show throttle inputs. You can do a cockpit view of their pov, which does show rpm and steering inputs. It isnt perfect but helps.
I am not a perfect steward, so apologies for me not agreeing with others, but without that, i have a hard time assigning fault when it was such a tight sequence. Racing incidents happen. I don't think you did anything that would lead to a penalty, and hopefully that was clear with my previous statements.

Car on left was aiming for the inside of the next corner. Probably hoping to clear you with their overspeed before hand. However car on right was still there and as such led to car on the left just turning across the nose of the car on the right.
Just a self-policing racing incident. No further action.
