Session: Race Involved: P37 Strula Gheorghe #76, P4 Samuel Bonning #79 & Me #93 Approaching a lapped car (McLaren #76) which at first glance lets us by, but for some reason not lifting off slightly. To my surprise he then went for an even later braking point than me, almost causing contact with the BMW ahead (who had to take avoiding action). I also had to take avoiding action, and had such slow Apex speed, the car behind (Mustang #79) had little to no time to react or respond, causing light contact and a spin. For me, the contact with #79 is unfortunate, and a racing incident with close racing, on top of that, he even let me back through on the straight after (which was nice of him, and showed good racecraft, but in my opinion not necessary as he was, in my opinion, not the one to blame). I'm making this report so the AM driver can learn from his behaviour on track, and what it caused. What he should've done was lifting on the straight, let us 3 go, and slot in behind. But to my surprise he was flat out the entire straight, and braking even later than us, causing this incident.
Bonning has been given a 10s penalty for causing a collision
