Here are the race 3 start videos. Not to prove anything, just to show you a probably new high Jump style record.

Hedlund Wrote:Third race, reversed grid. my brother Robert retired 2nd race and therefor started on pole in this last race, and he cut the pit exit line after the start, hitting a invisible cone (he first thought he was hit by someone behind him) and lost control, crashing into the metal posts and spinning back on track,
But if you look carefully at 1st video, crashing starts before that, when somebody hits me from behind.

First of all the whole mayhem at race 3 happened because Robert (who started from the front row btw) deliberately hitted an invisible cone and lost control of his vehicle.
At first by looking replay I thought he must have been drinking heavily before the race or something. I started from back and took one of my best starts ever. Road was wide open in the middle and no-one was going to overtake anyone (no speed differences) so there was no reason for me to ease off the throttle. Unfortunately Robert went off the track, hit the pole and spinned back in (which I failed to see for some reason) which forced Neela to slow down earlier than normal which furthermore forced Nikos to move slightly to the right. At this point I noticed Neela slowing down unexpectedly early and started to move left to avoid collision but then Bart hit Nikos' right rear tire causing him to lose control ending up hitting Neela pushing her car in front of me and hence I ran out of space and had no ways of avoiding the collision. Same time at the front Robert hit some other car and total mayhem was reality - luckily there were no physical injuries to anyone! I think we can all point our blaming fingers towards ISI and Feels3 for such a sloppy work! 
About the other hot issue; cutting. My personal opinion is that if we're seriously going to continue arguing about which one is the defining factor - tire contact surface or side wall - then this series isn't for me. Cutting deliberately is one thing and making microscopic steering error another. And what comes to Marcel's lap; maybe he gained max 0,05 seconds from that "cutting" (which in my opinion wasn't) and if we add that to his laptime then he's still like half a second faster than anybody else. I think he made his point!
At least to me he did. What comes to my driving then yes I was over the white line many times at the race. But I wasn't doing it on purpose and most of the time slowed down a little or made aggressive move back to track so that didn't gain extra time. When you're trying to be on the limit then these will happen no matter what. I think the key thing to consider on these issues is to find out whether cutting was done deliberately or not.Anyhow had loads of fun yesterday! Looking forward to next race(s) 8)

Yes I knew it, but having dinner with my brother and niece took longer than expected.
Doh, just noticed this was a league race, I thought it's a fun race.
