Bergmeister is up in arms with the #62 Ferrari team after this bump on the last turn of a 12-hour race. The Porsche team went to the ALMS race directors who just said "Uh, that's racin'" and sent them back on their way.

Don't GT class races allow contact if it's unintentional? It looked to me like the ferrari was pushing hard, and started to understeer coming from the tighter line :dunno: Yeah, that's racing for ya. Still bloody exciting :thumbsup:

The contact at the end of the last corner would have been acceptable to me if the Ferrari hadn't of tried to drive the Porsche into the inside wall on the backstraight as well. Without that move they wouldn't have been close enough in the last corner to touch and the Porsche would have won.

Racers have long memories. Payback will happen.

One thing for the ALMS, their decision has created some excitement heading into the rest of the season.
