I was hoping zanchetti wasn't going to win after his filthy move on ronnefalk in qualifying.
It seems driver etiquette is slowly fading away.
Another example was at storm valley wen boots copped a hit from Bloomfield who went on to win the final.

Such behavior should be despised by everyone, if them referees/RD don't call them out what if I crash everyone in my main to gain position? I guess it's alright then.
Even if it wasn't my fault or intended if I would cause a crash and loss of position for a driver I'll wait for the driver to go before me.
And I don't get this: Neobuggy Oh a short track it's an excuse for lack of driver etiquette? Such wow much lack of drive etiquette...
Sorry, rant over.

If you're "popular" or of a certain status in a certain place, you can get away with things other people might not get away with, perhaps...

Rules should apply to everyone equally.

i was there but wasn't watching that heat, i red it on neobuggy; in the paddock nobody talked about this, maybe (maybe) it was just a driver mistake on the zanchettin side and nothing more.
my impression is that people tends to like certain drivers and if something "bad" happens to those drivers it becomes a huge fact..

When n if something like that happens, the RACE DIRECTOR is just as at fault as the driver, if boots or zanchetti didn't make it right It's up to the person running the to make them make it right........it's called a STOP N GO where I race

Incident is on video, start watching from 40secs

at this point marshalls trying to fish out Zanchettin who had crashed and was unseen losing a lot of time right at the start of a quali run @ 47 secs, they put him on track, right behind ronnefalk, obviously at this stage Ronnefalk would be ahead in terms of track position given Zanchettin's very lengthy crash.
From 55 secs you see it unfold, Zanc goes to the inside and bulldozes.

Must say though his driving for the rest of the race was much better, deserved winner in the end bar this unforgiving take out.

Things like this happen all the time when I am racing . Alex did carry a lot of speed into that corner but there are always cases of mis judgements of speed/ line and not reading the other persons driving properly . If you look when him and Elliot were racing it was clean . I guess nothing was said to ronnefaulk when he just drove 30 feet off track on the astro to rejoin the track no where near where he left it after his double pipe hang up . I was always told you have to re join the track where you left it or as near as . Things happen fast when racing and decisions are made quickly some good some bad

That was pretty bad. I think it deserved some kind of penalty, but it would never happen.

I suppose the bottom line is race organizers are so worried about upsetting these big name drivers, for fear they might not want to return next year, or bad mouth the event, they'd rather not say anything than upset them.
