Gary's team apparently refused to supply data showing that all previous 11 laps, Bairdo had not braked on that particular corner but did on this occasion. . . . . Yes I recall it too.
I can see that you recall the incident very clearly also, but I must just fill in one further gap in what you have posted. There were two touches by Fogg, not one and the first one was prior to any braking by Bairdo. I know that the first touch caused Baird to brake, so he could keep control of the car and that came from the man personally.

Isn't it great that we both remembered it so well, it must say something about Foggy reputation, otherwise neither of us would have remembered it, or recalled it so clearly.
