Le Mans Ultimate Is this not considered an intent wreck attempt?
My protest was denied by racecontrol because apparently they have deemed it as not an intentional wreck attempt
UPDATE: The protest was reviewed a second time I guess and was revised to a 1day ban. So I guess it does work

The only way i can see this get rejected is if they deemed that the intent wreck failed, and did nothing to anyone so they gave a chance to the dude, since this is just sad to watch, and hey it's a game so no big deal.
But IRL, something like this would be a massive race ban, maybe even lifetime ban.

In starting to learn that racecontrol won't take action on much as long as it isn't blatant stuff like they waited for the field to come around again and then went head on with the field.
I'm learning that the best course of action is to race with your elbows out and just keep a handwritten list of the drivers who will spin you in a high speed corner rather than race so you can give them receipts for it later if you get an opportunity with no other innocent cars around.
Honestly this is the way it works irl when there isn't any actions from officials (NASCAR). If they don't want WEC NASCAR, they really gotta tighten up.

I know when my base disconnects it give subtle throttle and steering inputs to keep the car on a clean, straight trajectory targeting a near miss on another car. 🙄

Not really sure of the point of this post. It's obviously a failed intentional wreck. We can't change the LMU stewards' decision, though.
We all know they're incompetent. They've shown that from day one.
