The only person the 'vette driver should be angry at is himself.

Im still a newb to wheel to wheel racing, but dont you have to make sure you can make a pass safely before even attempting it? It seemed that Jorg Bergmeister was going inside to the wall before the C6 R.GT was there....



Im still a huge fan of Flying Lizard. even after this

Yep.

And, not that it was justified or even the right thing to do, but maybe the Porsche driver got tired of being continually rammed/bumped by the Vette and decided to give a little back...

Either way a crazy thing to do even though I completely doubt that the end result was the Porsche driver's intentions.

I don't blame the Porsche driver. The Corvette driver went to overtake him on the inside and the Porsche driver kept it tight. The Porsche driver may have "bumped" him toward the wall, but I don't believe he caused the wreck. If his "bump" had, he would've be taken out too. I found a clearer video and there is very very minimal damage to the Porsche. If he had pushed him that hard, there would have definitely been a lot more damage to the Porsche. The Corvette driver seems to be be pretty "bump" happy as it is and I'm actually wondering if he got pissed when the Porsche driver go in close and tried taking them both out.

Clearer video...
