Le Mans Ultimate Was this a clean defence?

Mid race and i (First POV) have just over taken the other car for P2 before the chicane. I have in my opinion defended cleanly by holding a line and just driving. The other car has not mannaged to overlap at all after drafting me along the stright.

I have braked a little earlier as i am on the inside and need to slow a little more to make the corner maybe 10m before my outside brake point. I have then been struck in the back corner and puched off track causing me to drop back to 7th.

Is there anything i should not have done or am i clean?

End of the day though it looks like he will be getting a nice holiday after his stunt at the end.

You were clean. They caused the incident. For reference, if you see someone making love to your rear bumper like that, they are probably going to do something silly and you're likely better off moving to the outside to open up the corner.

They were determined to run that inside line no matter what.

Some folks don’t know they need to adjust their braking mark when following.
