aren't most of the front running Lotus Cortina's pretty much sports racers these days?!!! Actually I thought it was 6 hour race - my apologies!

It's interesting to consider that, no matter how events shown in the video unfolded as they did, a few cms here or there - width on track, further alongside or not alongside at all, and so on - and the outcome would probably have been very different.
Of course that is true of many on track incidents and not a few on the roads. So often the line between incident and no incident is very thin. |

Yep agree the Red Cortinas angle he was coming across at (on likely one of the fastest bens on th track was way to harsh), evn if the white car had not been there, a that angle it was almost certain to dig in or get an oversteer that at that speed would not have been caught. Bit like the Vettel Webber crash, i.e. Vettle chopping in when zero need, both incidents the cars could have run a more gentler line and the Red Cortina and Vettle would have not had an accident! The white car was racing hard but lifted and was right over to the left! |
