What's the ruling on how the GT grid is supposed to start the race? I know there is a bit of quirkiness with racing is on once the green flag waves, but does that extend to the GT cars on the split start? Something doesn't look right there. And very unusual that a GTLM team would be caught out or run afoul of the regulation (from either end BMW RLL or Porsche).
In the post race tech segment on rlm, I believe Jeremy Shaw said at the initial start you have to wait until the start finish line to pass, but on subsequent restarts you can go as soon as the green waves, even if you are back in the pack.
