Lobby: Lobby A
Lap: 11

Evidence: https://clips.twitch.tv/IgnorantMiniatureFennelBudBlast

Description by LMP Crimsonify: I've lead race three for 11 laps while DriftiN was on my tail the whole time. Coming into T1 I go to take my line but DriftiN throws it on my inside, hits my door and keeps his foot down. As a result I fell into third. This move did grant him the win though. I fell he was irresponsible and it looked similar to what he did to TheyCallMeBubz in race two, coming into Druids. A couple of laps before this incident DriftiN said in the party something along the lines of ""the only way I'm getting passed you is with a surprise move"". I really don't deem a hit as a worthy surprise move...

Please give your response to this incident:

Stewards Decision: No action

We determined that Crimsonify wasn't impeded.

Steward Inquiry Reference Number: 316
Drivers Involved: LazyDandy, Ohm DriftiNHero, I Ray P Dave I
Series: Hot Hatch Challenge
Round: Round 1 / Brands Indy
Race: Race 1
Lobby: A
Lap: 4

Evidence: Video Clip http://xboxclips.com/Ohm+DriftiNHero/0baf4092-f7b3-4f2b-a533-ce0f2942add3

Description by Ohm DriftiNHero: It all began with turn 3. After a slow exit off turn 2 for LazyDandy I had a nice run around the outside of turn 3. At which point LazyDandy came across on to my line and proceeded to push me off into the run off area of the turn. Carrying on towards turn 4 I managed to keep my nose just along side his rear quarter. At which point he came across my front end again causing more contact. The situation was dealt with by me braking to avoid more damage and LazyDandy using the grass as a run off area in turn 5. This run off turned into a straight lining of the corner resulting in major contact with myself and I Ray P Dave I who was on my outside. There was no consideration for the incoming drivers with right of way on the racing surface. In my opinion there was total disregard for the other racers positioning or safety; had I Ray P Dave I not been on my outside to keep me within the track limits at the very least I would have ended up in the gravel, if not worse (having to pit). There was no verbal apology nor any sign of wanting to give the position back on track and therefore disregarded by LazyDandy.

Stewards Decision: Racing Incident

Ohm gave a slight tap to Dandy which forced him off track. It came full circle and Dandy ultimately rejoined and hit Ohm.

Round: Round 1
Race: Race 2
Lobby: Lobby A
Lap: 10

Evidence: https://clips.twitch.tv/AgreeableUnusualDinosaurPeteZarollTie

Description by LMP Crimsonify: I was following the battle for 10th when DriftiN threw it on the inside of Bubz coming into Druids, braking very late. Bubz had given him plenty of room on the inside but DriftiN hits him and then keeps his foot down moving into my lane. I brake in reaction to their incident but Sorry slams in the back of me and that puts me into DriftiN and into Bubz again turning him around. In my oppinion everything could have been avoided if DriftiN was a bit more patient. He had plenty of over aggressive moments in all three races and it was very fortunate this time around that nobody got damaged.

Please give your response to this incident:

Stewards Decision:

Ohm DriftiNHero: -3 Position Penalty

Ohm caused an incident with an audacious divebomb into Druids, hitting Bubz and causing other contact behind.

Steward Inquiry Reference Number: 352
Drivers Involved: LMP Crimsonify and PLOW tubbi
Series: Hot Hatch Challenge Europe
Round: Round 4 at Maple Valley
Race: Race 3
Lobby: Lobby A
Lap: Lap 3

Evidence: https://clips.twitch.tv/AwkwardBoldPoxBudBlast

Description by LMP Crimsonify: After an incident in T1 on lap one I found myself battling for P12. Trying to maintain as much speed as possible I took the ideal line into the hairpin on lap 3 and tubbi threw it on the inside, shoved me wide and drove off. I asked him to give the position back but he ignored me.

Please give your response to this incident:

Stewards Decision:

PLOW Tubbi: -1 Position penalty

The stewards agreed that Tubbi did overtake using contact, constituting an illegal overtake. They did not agree with the defence given, noting that a faster driver surely should execute a clean pass. Overall, just a very minor penalty was applied.

Lobby: Lobby A
Lap: Lap 1

Evidence: My perspective: https://clips.twitch.tv/CredulousDistinctPidgeonChefFrank and HCR Dandy's: https://clips.twitch.tv/AuspiciousAmorphousKaleRickroll?tt_medium

Description by LMP Crimsonify: I got of to a bad start which allowed some drivers to catch up. We went four wide into T1 when B4D turns really early across Dandy, smashing his door. He bounces into my car breaking my grip then collides with Mikey almost spinning him around. I was already sideways and didn't have enough time to brake so I hit Mikey and we both went wide. B4D really went for a gap that wasn't there and if he were a bit more patience and/or more skillful to just hold his line we would have all made it. Mikey went from P3 to P14 and I dropped from P5 to P13.

Please give your response to this incident:

Stewards Decision: Racing Incident

Overall, the stewards could not apportion full blame due to the context of the situation.

//Note: Drivers should be careful, When four goes into one something's got to give!

Drivers Involved: LMP Crimsonify and SOxCALxINDYx24
Series: Hot Hatch Challenge EU
Round: 5
Race: 3
Lobby: A
Lap: 13

Evidence: https://clips.twitch.tv/ThankfulCulturedStingrayTTours

Description by LMP Crimsonify: Coming into the chicane on a bad last lap I saw SOxCALxINDYx24 creeping up on the inside. He gave me a slight tap at the top of the hill and I move to the left to give him room. Knowing how much grip the Fords have over the Hyundais I take a narrow line to try and secure my position. SOxCAL doesn't back off and tries to mount the inside curb to get past but went in too narrow, slid into my door and threw me sideways costing me the win. I've talked with him after the race and he apologized but it was brought to my attention that SOxCAL did the same thing on FMJam in race 2 putting him into the wall and ruining his race.

Please give your response to this incident:

Stewards Decision:

LMP Crimsonify: -3 Position Penalty

The stewards found that Crimsonify was unsafe in defending and blocking, forcing others off track, as shown in other clips including one most relevant to the context of the submitted SI:

Description by EVR Smokyjo : I was on the in side of the track and then all I know is flying mikey j puts me on the grass and my car begins to roll witch means I have to put and then I end up being lapped

Please give your response to this incident:

Stewards Decision:

LMP Grizz: -2 Points Penalty

After Grizz and Smokeyjo came together before, the secondary incident was not Mikey's fault. It was Grizz who came down and initiated contact with Mikey and causing the incident behind.

Unfortunately, it seems that Forza accentuated the incident which we have no control over.

Evidence: http://xboxclips.com/Flyin+Mikey+J/97157333-3125-4412-89e4-1313466a4dc3

Description by Flyin Mikey J: Hamish and myself had a drag race to turn 1 and stayed side by side through the corner. On corner exit he runs wide, into me, and our cars hook just enough for him to go off track. At which time he proceeds through the grass apparently full throttle and has a very unsafe reentry in turn 2, spinnng FMJam and wiping out BMMC Bandicoot.

Please give your response to this incident:

Stewards Decision:

HCR Hamish: -2 points penalty.

The stewards agreed that Hamish reentered unsafely. They did consider the Forza barriers but ultimately agreed a minor penalty is most appropriate.
