Lap AND MPR timecode of incident : 48 (1h21m)
Car(s) involved: 03
Location of Incident (Track Map Here): Turn 5
Due to too late breaking car 03 spins out car 73, car 03 had enough space on the inside line.

General remark or question.
Do GT2 drivers have to slam the breaks when they see a blue flag, because most GT1 drivers force their way trough. I already read a comment in IRC saying "blue flag means prepare for impact". It certainly felt like that today.

GT2 drivers must not impede the progress of the GT1 cars. They do not have to sacrifice their track position relative to their GT2 competition, but they also should not unduly hold up the GT1s.

GT1s must initiate a proper overtaking maneuver which the GT2 car must not defend.

There shouldn't be any contact during lappery really, but communication between teams in IRC can help people know, as well as the management using remote to help their drivers spot as best as possible.

No Penalty - The start incident was an accordion effect due to multiple cars following too close combined with sudden acceleration and deceleration. Drivers are hereby reminded to AVOID sudden and/or significant changes in speed while under Safety Car / Race Start / Race Restart conditions! There is no excuse to suddenly change velocity or significantly change velocity whilst in queue.

Description : car 07 send car 54 into the gravel costing it about a lap. Some lag was involved but car 07 should have been aware of that and be more careful.

No Penalty - The lag caused the contact which sent 54 off; but 54 also should have yielded to the overtaking maneuver which could have avoided the situation

Car 05 - 25 seconds appended to race time (SG conversion) - Unsafe recovery from an incident. It should be noted that Cars 4, 8 and 19 (among others) ignored the LFS-generated yellow flags, contributing to this incident.
75% Violations: None
Qualifying Driver Racing at least one lap: One Violation which was exempted from penalty
Car 67 has been disqualified from receiving the participation bonus for entering the series late, retiring extremely early from the race and rapidly withdrawing from the series. We are not satisfied that Car 67 was serious about attending the series due to the late entry and quick withdrawl.

Due to this, Car 56 will be considered to have started the race to keep them eligible for all participation bonus points.
