Warning to Cars 27 and 13.
Car 27 - causing an avoidable incident - even though Car 13 was yielding to the car ahead, in no way could it for sure mean that Car 27 is also being yielded to. Car 27 must show more prudence in overtaking slower cars, especially in tight sections such as where this incident took place.
Car 13 - unsafe yielding - Car 13 was giving mixed signals to the car(s) behind, contributing to the incident. In future, please either commit to proper pace, or yield as appropriate (example, stay far left between the left and right of the incident scene)
Car 67 - 1-lap deduction, unsafe recovery from an incident. This recovery from the initial wall contact which started this incident led to the majority of issues.
The protested incident is a racing incident. Car 15 had the right to progress in his race while Car 67 was recovering. Car 67 should have left more room while still recovering just at the left-hand kink after the right hander.
Car 21 - 10-place grid penalty for Round 6 - Causing an avoidable incident
