I guess we can now all empathize with the stewards in various series... Not as easy as we think to assign pure responsibility in a car to car wheel
To wheel contact scenario even with video from several viewpoints.
Looks like a racing incident to me, p car got a bit loose on curbing, snaps a bit, he tries to correct. Right rear is laying down a stripe before contact so he's got a bit of cleanup and in the meantime N car is making a pass. So overtaking car has respOnsibilty to make a clean pass and car being overtaken has to give racing room....in pca only of course...
So if you are the pca steward, who gets the 13....?
Probably best cut the video prior to shooting the finger in pca also before you share with the stewards...

+1. Grojean didn't get a one race suspension because of one isolated incident. An accumulation of incidents gets you a rep and more eyes on you.

as I recall the accident, he flipped in a gravel trap going from the front straight to infield at Homestead and the roll hoop failed.
