[V8SC] Stewards Briefing - Round 3
#3
Stewards Report: Round 3

There was one incident reported to the stewards for this round.

Incident Involving Car 2 and Car 86
The preliminary findings have resulted in the following observations:
Car 2 (MRN3Drifter) collided with considerable force with car 86 (Hyboi) causing a loss of control and contact with the fence, however car 86 was slowing and appears to be deviating from the natual racing line in anticipation of needing to avoid contact with car 16 and car 17 who were involved in a separate collision on the apex of turn 2 towards the racing line for turn 3. Car 2 has made contact with car 86 during this time and as a result of the contact car 86 lost three positions.

Stewards Findings:
While the collision did result in a loss of positions it is difficult to say if the situation would have played out differently had the secondary incident between Car 16 and Car 17 not been occuring at the same time in proximity to this incident. As a result my intitial finding is to deem the incident a racing incident but to remind all drivers that increased caution must be taken during the first lap as incidents such as these are at a higher risk of occuring. As the old addage goes, you can't win a race on the first lap, but you can lose it. While this incident had external factors we won't be light on first corner/lap incidents in future because we've seen two in three races and want to nip it before it becomes too common.
