for the last several days this has been a drama unfolding.
BRZ was an innocent victim.
The real question is the driver of the Mclaren.... wreckless or not. Although the unfolding drama is pointing pretty heavily in one direction.

just based off the comment section, appears that there are clearly different sides to the story based on people who witnessed the crash. although the guy seems like a grade A douche, there are some people who don't believe he was completely at fault. wish we could see the video footage from his gopro, that would certainly clear some things up..

Some Context
If I had a video of an incident that proved me at fault, I would be tempted to have my battery die as well.
But here is a link to what led up to it - he got owned by a GTR and may have been in a hurry to regain position
note the slowest car starts last and ends up in front. The fastest car starts 2d and ends up in 3d.

this shows the gtr going after the Ferrari after having just past the McLaren

For those who didn't read the Teamspeed.com thread, this quote came from the BRZ driver. Just sayin'.
All I wanted was for him to take responsibility for his mistake and say he was sorry.
Now he is saying that I said the accident was my fault? I guess he has a lot of money on the line...
The corner workers that watched it all happen placed all the blame on him for making a bone head move. I never moved off the racing line and got hit by a car that was in the wrong place at the wrong time.
