Sorry, you started braking way earlier than I expected (even the inside car brakes later and makes it without problems)
And it got a bit worse since you didnt turn in

Your Car Number: 73
Other Car(s) Involved: 10
Brief Description of Incident

goes off track onto grass and instead of lifting off or rejoining safely just throws his car back onto the track taking out #73 and causing contact with #02 also.

My apologies, but I had no where to go. The chicane is not a bus stop, especially in gt1. Also I couldn't lift on the grass, because car would loose momentum, and it would be even more unstable. And going out with 100kph in a 200kph corner wouldn't be the best thing. Me and James had a contact which pointed me to the rear of your car.

but, you didnt have to launch your car back on to track..

dont give me the "icant control it " excuse because in practice i went off there and can control it just fine. james pushed you wide onto grass then you decided that you would just launch your car into the rear of ours.

I suppose you didn't see I've touched James' front and that pointed me to your car. And the control on the grass really depends on the diff tho. And where am I supposed to go? In the tyres, or turn left from the tyres and spin. Because to put so much steer onto grass is just spin factor.(I hope you understand what I mean). Anyway, don't know if it was my fault, but sorry to your team anyway.

Wow.. that was a surprising ending of the race indeed. But, it's racing and it was great fun until that. Thanks guys

protest has been addressed

LLM #05 was horribly dangerous the whole race. They rear ended me on 3 or else 4 different occasions.

I remember some Ixion's folk words from this round's practice when he said that SAVAGE won't beat Ixion
