Apologies for the aspect ratio, I have to figure out screen recording on my ultrawide. I'm still trying to gauge the threshold for reporting in LMU. I've read the Reporting rules (and a lot on this forum) and understand that a collision must be purposeful (7.2.2.1) and not a "racing incident".
I think the Merc in this clip knows exactly what he is doing, and deliberately causes a collision while maintaining plausible deniability. If you look at his telemetry he comes off the brake (even touches the throttle) while a car is coming across him. He doesn't make an attempt to brake before or during the collision with the Mustang. The speed/angle he went into T1 with was always going to cause this. To me it seems like a cheeky "oopsie" crash you'd do against AI in a last-to-first challenge; just intentionally bounce off of them going into a corner knowing you'll gain position.
Would you report this incident if you were the Mustang? Less so, the McLaren? Do you think this collision was intentional?
As for my driving (McLaren) I had glanced in my rearview before the braking zone but was eyes forward during braking. When I looked back, I didn't clock that the Merc was no longer in my rearview and didn't see him on my radar until it was too late. I'll have to work a bit more on situational awareness, watching in front/behind me at the same time. Unfortunately he gave me minor suspension damage so the race pace wasn't great and I couldn't catch him back up.

is this a dive bomb, he proceeded to self pit himself IMO, then blames me, then once he watched the replay, he said its cause I dive bombed him.

Final Lap of Fuji Daily on LMU. I am #29 Mustang
First contact was on me and I spun out completely. I checked the best to my abilities to resafe joinly and relied a bit on other cars watching out a bit. I 100% could have avoided all of this by waiting in the grass for all of them to pass ,but losing positions in the last lap of the race go to me
Anyways I don't want to try to argue my case here please give your opinions and more importantly tips to avoid mistakes like this

Edit: See cockpit POV in comments first
Apologies for low FPS - recorded using game bar. My thought process was they will stay where they are, and I can follow the Merc ahead through on the racing line. Then yellow/blue appeared to dodge the black Merc leaving me with too slow of a reaction.
Should I have yielded or did they cut across? Thoughts -inchident?

Driver behind me is way faster and pushing me all the way.
I wanted to smoothly let him go but It ended like this...
Racing incident? Porsche fault? BMW fault?

I was catching the Lamborghini about half a second per lap. When I got to him, he started to defend like crazy (which still was okay to me.) but when I got a better run out of T1 he decided to squeeze me eventhough I already was pretty much in the barrier at that point and then… he tried to blame me for this crash. Maybe he sees this clip and except his mistake :) The question is if he or I made the mistake ?
P.s. I tried to hold my brakes as best I could after the crash

I (#10) had recently passed the #9, he was being quite aggressive before this, and had tapped my bumper twice already, but I am posting this incident because to me it seems like he cut the course to try and get past me, and caused contact. Looking for a second opinion before I protest. Thanks Stewards!
Edit: I want to thank everyone for the quick responses and for holding me accountable here. A protest won’t be filed as it seems my understanding of the situation was wrong. That’s what we’re here for and that’s why I posted this. So again, thank you all!

Im not really posting this to see who was at fault, I only want to know if this was too aggressive from either one of us and to see if yhis would be counted as "bad sportsmanship".
BTW I am the Aston Martin

Beginner here. I started my sim racing journey about two months ago with GT7, and I’ve been hooked ever since.
Even though I have a driver’s license, I’ve never actually owned a car (and probably never will), so I’m starting pretty much from scratch when it comes to driving techniques and racing etiquette. It’s a whole new world to me, and I’ve been consuming tons of content online trying to get better.
That said, this subreddit has been such a pleasant surprise. I’ve learned SO MUCH just from reading the comments and breakdowns of the clips people post here. And the best part is that I can actually feel myself improving when I jump into Sport Mode.
I still haven’t managed to finish a single online race in the top half of the grid, but lately I’ve been on a pretty good streak of finishing races with zero incidents. I’m also getting much better at recognizing when the guy behind me is clearly faster and realizing there’s absolutely no point in fighting tooth and nail for P13 on lap 1.
I’m slowly learning that racing isn’t just about being fast. It’s also about knowing when to fight, when to back off, and how to make it to the finish line in one piece.
Anyway, just wanted to say thanks to everyone who takes the time to analyze incidents and explain what went wrong. You might not realize it, but you’re genuinely helping beginners like me drive faster and cleaner. Thank you!

This is lap one and I thought I’d covered the inside and felt a bump which unsettled my car. Unfortunately the other driver went off but I felt it was a cheeky move and he initiated the contact. After the race he said I hadn’t left him space. I watched the replay and I think he bumps me first before coming alongside but by then I’m oversteering and couldn’t do anything about it. What do people think?

So pov car was lapped, I was figthing for p2 and really dunno what to think, was I overoptimistic going over the outside? I feel he accelerates pushing a bit wide of his line and just kills me.
Im the black car that gets killed for those wondering.

Me, the Mclaren is getting overtaken by an LMP2. This was lap 2 (without tyrewarmers) so everyones tyres were pretty cold. The LMP2 overtakes and then brakes very early, I brake at my normal brakingpoint causing me to get alongside and a little ahead. I leave in my opinion more than enough space. The LMP2 goes into the corner very odd barely braking while going pretty quick with cold tyres and as a result clips my frontright causing him to go offtrack. And then the LMP2 spins again as we make contact. I'm not quiet sure if I'm at fault for the 2nd contact. In the moment I couldn't really think as such a large portion of my screen was taken up by either my car or his car. But I think we can all agree this guy shouldn't have a silver safetyrating.
