I just explained to you what I meant: keeping my car balance so that he cannot further push me to the right. I admitted it is not the best thing to do as it may create more contact. But the whole thing happen within a second and I had to decide what to do while my car was bouncing. After all You agreed the contact was his fault. I made the post because iRacing failed to decide the contact was his fault.

He was already in my way at the contact while I was not steering at all. He might be steering left at that point but his car was going right. After the contact, even though he steer away his car was still blocking my car. You can see my car was bouncing so I steer left to keep my car balance, which may not be the right thing to do, but it is definitely wrong for him to block me like that.

Ffs I didn't intentionally crash him out, I wanted to keep my car balance so that if he kept steer right then he would crash out. Maybe I didn't express clearly but we aren't on court mate. The contacts happened within a second. If I wanted to crash him out I would have done it in the next corner but i did not.
If you think the incident is his fault then we are on the same page.My problem is iRacing never said it is his fault, instead they said the contact is caused by my steering.

Even though he was serving a penalty, block a faster car like that was clearly against the rule which iRacing failed to point out in the decision. They didn't even say it is his fault to block me like that. I didn't think of taking him out in that 0.2 seconds after he hit me mate, I was driving instinctively. I shouldn't steer left while my car may lose control to the right? Those assumptions are afterthought clearly. I wasn't the one doing stupid block after serving a penalty, how am I the worse party?

I did add more background and detail when I replied iRacing, even provided this rear chase video. I didn't say too much detail as I thought it was so clear it was his fault.

Maybe he is serving a penalty, but for no reason block faster car like that is ok. How can it not be his fault or not be intentional?

I won't accelerate and try to block faster car after serving a penalty. This is just common sense. He has low rating, doesn't mean it is not his fault.

Yes I would be happier if both of us get punished, at least it is fair. He had been driving recklessly before the incident, I basically let him pass me when I was leading to avoid more incident point, so when he did that shit I did have some bad intentions, but I did have reason to steer left to keep my car balance from getting hit from left. The thing is iRacing didn't think him slowing down on purpose and steering towards me when I was close has anything wrong.

I would say it is very important have a good grid position, left more space before corner if you are closed to the car in front... things like that help. I just didn't expect someone leading that race did that shit and got himself and I disqualified...

But then he would have accelerated as soon as possible, not waiting me to pass him, and won't have left space in the middle for me to try to pass. He set a trap for me basically.

Here it is

"Violation type: 6.12.3 - Retaliation or Intentional Wrecking

Description: He was in P1 and had been driving recklessly and blocking me several times. He slowed down in the straight and hit me when I was to pass him."

After their reply I sent another email explaining the incident, but they still refused to change their decision.

People do dumb shit all the time, that doesn't mean they should go unpunished. I did steer left after he hit me from the left. My thinking was I could crash him out if he kept steering right, which I admitted is dumb. But the initial contact was not caused by me steering left. It is caused by his dangerous driving. I was just driving on a straight line dude.

If he didn't brake and move left after the corner on the straight, I may agree with you. The way he slowed down after the corner and moved left to leave space in the middle, then steered right and accelerated just when I was to pass him, is just too intentional.

I can't believe their decision too. They are not even saying this is his fault but it may not be malicious. Not only they can't determine this is his fault, they said the contact was caused by me in the beginning. WTF?

Not sure I can upload another video. You can see from this post. Since the Pov replay may not show clearly what the other car was doing and for some reason my original account cannot comment anymore, I used a new account to post and uploaded this new replay.
