Man started braking in New Zealand and got upset when no one expected it when cars are that close

Someone tell the guy that brake checking on iRacing doesn't get him an insurance claim, believe it or not.

I'm impressed of how a guy with 6k irating can do such a mistake and still complain 😂

I'd protest him for chat abuse. That's only protest that would get upheld here. He started braking from the week before!

This incident was hilarious. When I watched it in real time I had a suspicion that he braked very early. Obviously he did and it wasn’t your fault at all lol.

As Alonso said once: "I can brake wherever I want whenever I want" (if I remember correctly). This is true for each driver and you need to anticipate it, but the braking needs to be safe and this guy clearly wasn't thinking about others here, so the blame is on him this time 100%

I like the cheeky little non-coverage for a second there ;)

Ollie you have to remember that there is an extreme cost to repair the car after an incident like the.......oh wait these are just pixels so there is no cost to repair. But you do have to admit that he has to wait at least a week for another chance to race........no that is not right either, I am pretty sure there are races going on all day. The one thing you have to admit though is that everything that happens to people like that, whether it be on the track or IRL is always someone else's fault, nothing is ever their fault and it is going to utterly ruin their life. You are good mate, the reason I watch is you are always quick to say when you are at fault and go back at watch the replay before bemoaning the faults of others. Keep doing you mate, you are just fine.

He broke so early he stopped at a traffic light in downtown Sydney...

I would normally say it's almost always on the following car for an incident like this, especially on the 1st lap when you're on cold tires and still feeling the other drivers out and so presumably braking a little early. But this guy wasn't even in the same zip code as the braking zone lol.

Not your fault. Frankly, if I braked THAT early, I'd expect to get punted if someone was following that close. Looks like he got "spooked" by the traffic.

Jeez last time I was that early a kid was produced...innocent M'Lord.

LMAO I love how you still give his name away Ollie

Thats 60m to early of a braking point even for me at 2.6k IR , The Lambo he caused it what a donkey.

Not you're fault but for me the doom'ometer would have been of scale after T1 and the run to T2 so would like to think I'd have dropped back for a good line through T2 to watch any potential carnage unfold.

After your clear explanation, that incident was all on him.

If anyone is to blame, it was the car beside you just deciding to make casual contact with the lambo in front of you, which may have made them feel like braking was a good idea. They did make contact several times. The guy on the left is to blame, if anyone.

Ollie you are such a gent. I need to remember this attitude. You handled it well.

He was atleast 12 years to early on the brakes 😅 Your comment made me laugh for a bit hahah

0:46 Absolutely justified and I haven't even watched the video yet😁

You could clearly see at the start the way they moved across the track that they were already tilted from the start to begin with... the accident was just a volcano that erupted which was in due time. Don't take those comments too personal Oliver.

Good race Ollie, he forgot to throw in a wreckfest reference while abusing you lol

Nothing to report that race! To Which overtake was the best? Made me laugh. That guy must have been having a rough day.

What spotter do u use?

Imagine how much further he could've gotten if he'd put his head down and drove instead of continuing to type in chat.

Milosevic started braking in a different postcode, he's killed himself in this situation

Great video oille sorry I missed the stream yesterday mate

Even before you said anything on the replay, my first though was "why is braking so early?". Not at fault.

thats a 1st lap racing incident, every driver had a role in that. there was 4 going into 1 a Turn 2. the car in front got spooked and you had no chance to react.

How dare you not anticipate him braking 100m before the braking point.

It's amazing how perfect they are, funny thing is they are the ones that ruin the passion for this as someone's will take it to heart and won't play again, been adults for some is really hard

Imaging braking 50 metres too early and NOT expecting to be punted, lol xD

First thought was 'Yep, Ollie's fault', untill you explain the braking zone and showed the BMW. Think the Lambo got scared of the Ferrari next to him and wanted to avoid a colision. So in short: No mistake by you!

I wonder if he thought he saw a roo hopping across the track and thought he needed to brake before even hitting the brake markers….

Just a racing incident, you was probably looking at the Ferrari on the left and didn’t see the. Take lights in time sucks but is still on tho

10:45 WAIT HOLD UP...

All out Brake Check! Fault is his Ollie!!!

2 wide and 3 deep, bumper to bumper, going into a corner that you yourself said last night you should just let them go if they're being aggressive. You owned the mistake multiple times, but you also knew something bad was absolutely going to happen there under those circumstances.

i really like these more edited videos, some times the full race replays can drag out a bit.

He braked too early. But you are behind him and you have to keep your distance. Next time let go of the drop

After seeing the replay that was 100% his own fault. He obviously couldn't see the brake marker but he had time to review the incident but yet went on the attack. I too would be upset and would have to take some of the blame for that one on his account.

That’s embarrassing for the other driver. Possibly a deliberate action so that they could appear in your video?

i played that race track to and im a rookie for sure and not even me brake on that point think i brake a 100 mark so ill try braking later from now on ill probley and up in the wall but fuck it whahahaha

He was probably more angry that you didn't argue with him than the actual incident. If guy was mad then fair game but belaboring the point was just stupid.

Lmao that dude likely thinks he lost his chance at being scouted by Team Redline. Too many like that on the service. That genuienly think they are esports worthy and that scouts would see it if only they didnt get wrecked. Dunning-krueger at its finest.

What we ALL want to know is whether there was ever further communication? Did this guy ever find out he was wrong?

Hows the carry on from him lol. You apologised and held your hand up. Don't stress mate, keep up the good work.

His fault for breaking early but you still have to take the blame for hitting him. That's just how it works

im more impressed that you got away with just an 2x

You already shouldered the blame, so not sure what I'm judging. :D I am captain slow, and even I brake past the 100 board ... just sayin. ;) You did nothing wrong other than failing to anticipate a shaky driver.

No reason for him to stand on the brakes that long before the braking zone

Breakcheck in a nutshell 😂

Probably on of them deals. He broke to early and you broke too late. Racing incident probably.

I think he was looking for a fight you could tell he was angry in his aggression with the Ferrari. He braked early 💯 but you might have been better off holding back a bit and letting them rek eachother.

this kind of things happen sometimes and to everybody sooo cannot blame you mate ^^ But the way this guys handle the situation is shameful for him, you said sorry ect and sti he is swearing on tchat ! I may have a solution for this next time mate, try to disable both public and private iracing tchat, like that you will enjoy your race without ppl crying in text. Other wise good video as always mate ! Keep rocking this mountain mate !

Just imagine this guy on the road in real life.

Geezers a wet flannel - if he didn’t brake early due to lack of minerals it would never of happened.

Not your fault there, Ollie. Those numpties were already battling at the beginning of the first lap like it was the last lap and you unfortunately got caught in the middle. I suspect, based on their idiotic and inflammatory chat messages, that you expected to just get off the throttle, get on the brakes, and disappear to the back somewhere out of their high and mighty sight.

Not everyone can read numberboards. That guy thinks he got a 51K iRating as well.

Only reason anyone could give fault is "because you were the trailing driver and hit them in the rear". Other than that, they braked insanely early with a car directly behind them anticipating the normal braking point. Racing incident of their own making, 100%. *smacks gavel*

I hate to say it, but I think that one was down to you. You left no margin for error in a situation where plenty could have gone wrong.

I'm not even near your IR and I know that service road is the braking point. Looks like HE lost sight of the braking point and was even involved in trying to squeeze the car to his left with some contact where he may have rattled his own cage. Not your fault at all. Just a racing incident.

sometimes im reminded how childish adults can be when i play this game. why sit and harass someone in chat after an incident? you go from being in the right, to being a asshole and possibly getting yourself banned for harassment. going to lose his "passion" and it would be entirely his fault because he wants to act like a fool.

I’m just here for the “it’s the responsibility of the passing car to overtake safely” people hahaha they seem to forget that “staying predictable” is also apart of that rule haha braking 100 meters before the braking zone is not predictable. Not even a coast from him which is what most people would do on the opening lap.

Watch this clip be on Sim Racing Stewards soon 😂😂😂 but no seriously, in this high of a split braking points are an absolute no brainer. Braking 100m early is something a rookie would do.

Dang, I suck and brake later than that....

I'm shit and even I don't brake that early.

Racing incident, as the car behind always your fault lol but he did break waaaay too early as you pointed out. The person should be reported for using derogatory language which is highly offensive. All views are from a 1.2k driver so should be taken with a pinch of road salt....

He was asking for it! What was that?

Meh. I sometimes think some people on iRacing (maybe online in general?) are just frustrated and looking for excuses to take their frustration on others. The ''protection" of the monitor makes it too easy. That was 100% on them. I hope you report them Ollie, not just because a brake test like that is an intentional wreck in my book, but the abusive language is uncalled for even when you apologised.

“STRIKE” 😂😂😂

Theres alot of ppl out there with anger issues. In games also. No use giving them air.

this video honestly just pissed me off lmfao. People can suck

He has a 6k irating and secondly brake checks you, not your fault I've watched it 5 times, thing is so many people grind to go from rookie to a class so fast but don't properly drive nor learn what is common sense. Facts leveling so fast don't give you learning experience in respect just facts.. 100% allot of people also don't blame themselves for their own mistakes and blame others, folks need to hold themselves to higher standards instead a name blaming which is called respect aka sportsmanship

We all do mistakes and I am so sad to see so many aggressives messages. That can kill passions. Lots of streamer do that too. But there is no better place than iracing today to be with other good drivers. This kind of messages are a shame there is no money or pressure.

unless he apologized for his language afterwards, pleaaaaase report that. Angry or not, that was just toxic and we don't need those slurs in iRacing...

TBF, our Lambo friend was likely pissed off out the gate, with the #4 Ferrari bumping him both in and out of Turn 1…Not sure he braked checked you (ie. deliberately broke early) …Unless he thought you were somehow also involved in him losing a couple of places before the crash even happened?! 🤔If he WAS annoyed he should actually have broken LATE not early and driven up the trumpet of the #4 into T2 !! 🤣🤣 …which of course I wouldn't advocate either! 😄 …Anyway, you ARE a moron, Ollie, but we still love you! 😍

100% on the Lambo. Way too early on the brakes

that's on him. even the ferrari was not on their brakes. what a douche

Not your fault mate!!

I would report him for chat abuse :D - so he has time to think about what he's saying

Nah fuck that guy braking 50m early when everyone else didn't! He should go back to CS:GO!

I’d have understood if this was a 1k-2k lobby where people can be both scaredy cats and lunatics, but 5.3k IR? Dude needs to touch some grass

yeah I would put this on you. already have 4 cars ahead basically and no idea where the guy will brake at. Just use it as a learning experience and move on.

His English is hilarious

Ollie got too use to bump drafting in the Daytona 500 streams last week, he forgot in road racing you have to break for corners.

Looked like he was braking to make the drive way to the winery. So that didn't help the incident. You would not have anticipated someone to brake that early. Regardless though. Racing incidents happen and you apologised (when you didn't need too) so there was no need for him to carry on as he did. Its Bathurst name me one clean race in IRL with out a single incident...... I'll wait....

Nothing you could do he hit the breaks , I’d say it’s a racing incident ,if you want to blame anyone it’s everybody’s fault then . Edit: nah totally his fault breaking early .

150% not you. Exact same thing happened to me last week and it feels like you until you see the replay. That guy was having a BAD day

Not your fault at all mate. Pretty clear on this one, isn't it?

Ollie I don't think you did anything Wrong. He braked way to early, for Griffin's Bend. WHy he was so hard on the brakes that early I couldn't say, But not your Fault at all.

Totally his fault! Cant brake that early and not expect to be rear ended! So after all that id send a protest of his abusive chat just to prove a point! And i very rarely even think of protesting

Not your fault. The guy to your left front kept putting his RF into the guy to your front's LR, probably unbalancing him. So the guy in front braked way too early too and you stood no chance avoiding avoiding stabbing into him from the rear. That guy to your front should watch some replays and perhaps reach out to you to apologise for the abuse he gave you. If he doesn't, and reports you instead, report HIM for abuse.

i hope you did report him thats brutal the way he spouts off in chat with pretty harsh words

My opinion for what it's worth, if it upsets someone that much playing what is ultimately a game, I think they should find another hobby.

He brake checked you, that is reportable.

From my point of view with the league i race with on AMS2 that would be more your fault than theirs. Language aside yes they did absolutely brake very early for the corner theres no denying that but looking at it from my point of view you seem to sort of take the ability to react away from yourself. Again from my POV where i race i race in they're already 4 cars 2 by 2 in front of you, you have no direction to make any kind of move going into that corner besides hoping one of them stuffs it and you don't get caught up in it being that close. For me given its lap 1 as well you aren't sure how cautious someone's gonna be in that situation as they're still finding the flow. I would have backed off and made a little bit of a gap approaching the corner to give myself that reaction time given theres no room for you to make a move there. Just my point of view though, i think its a mixture of blame, they brake early for it and you were just too close behind them heading up to the corner with no move to make on the first lap in my opinion, seems a bit of a risk to take for me based on rulings where i race at.

Always your fault Ollie. Now let me watch 😉

If this was with a group that was all around my level (2.5k), I'd say it's on you for being too close. Not everyone's going to be comfortable going side-by-side into T2 that early, etc., etc. However, with a 5.1k iRating, that goes out the window. He was a solid 50+ meters early on the brakes and there's no reason for you to expect that at all. Seems like being doored into T1 might have thrown him off a bit, maybe?

Yes, it’s your fault. Now please stand by while I actually watch the video 😅
