Steward Inquiry Reference Number: 1391
Drivers Involved: VNX Shoya
Series: Spa 24
Round: Stint 11 / SPA
Race: N/A
Lobby: B
Lap: 1 hr 28 mins

Evidence: https://gamerdvr.com/gamer/ccx-mattimus/video/162573727

Description by CCX Mattimus: I heard that VNX Shoya had multiple controller desync's (not battery related) in our party chat. He must have decided to pit and whilst pitting his controller must have disconnected which resulted in his car being launched out of the pit lane with no input from VNX Shoya. He then parked for a lap and then pitted again and started to race again.

Stewards Decision: No further action. After an in depth discussion among the team members it was felt that a penalty would not be appropriate for this incident as it is believed that his controller did in fact de-sync. It is clear in the clip that the car rolls out of the pit lane uncontrolled. Mattimus even states that he was aware that Shoya had stated in the party chat he was having an issue. While unfortunate, there's little a driver can do when having a controller issue.
