1- FLP/r Jouman exiting last turn with a lower speed to [AA] Martini
2- Both drivers failing to adjust to the changing amount of racing room, with FLP/r Jouman closing the line on [AA] Martini, and [AA] Martini not being far enough alongside to claim the race line.

While it was partially the involvement of both drivers, [AA] Martinis noted lack of reaction was the cause of the incident - A post race 30sec penalty will be applied to [AA] Martini's time. - NOTE: as [AA] Martini was a DNF for round, the post race penalty will be applied by [AA] Martini starting the next race from the pitlane.

- LFS USERNAME FOR ANY DRIVER/S INVOLVED: slen ([AA] N.Garrison) and junkan ([SR] J.Mäkelä)

- LAP THAT THE INCIDENT OCCURRED ON: 4

- DESCRIPTION OF INCIDENT: Just after the start line, with junkan in his draft, slen lifted off the throttle, brake testing junkan and sending him into the back of slen.

REVIEW:
Following a review of the race replay, from multiple views and cameras, oneGP believes that the contact in this situation involved several factors:

1 - Slens mistake through last turn possibly still trying to recover himself.
2 - Possible driver error

Conclusion: RACING INCIDENT WITH MINOR WARNING

While avoidable, the incident was deemed to be more than likely unintentional and a result of driver error more so than any intentional attempt to cause an incident between the two drivers. Also the fact that slen suffered much more time lost as a result of incident the review board has decided that an official warning is the most appropriate outcome for this incident.
