A protest of qualifying!?

This was a report we got from everythingdrift.com’s live updates.
There was a delay on the results due to a contesting of a calling by Formula Drift driver Takatori. He felt that neither of his tires had dropped off course during his final run and he would have had a better score if they judges mis-called him. After a review by Formula Drift Judge Andy Yen and with the help of Belle-1 Racing Communications, they we’re able to review the tapes and see that the right call was made by the judges during his initial qualifying run.
We are all about a just cause and calling things on how it is in the sport to make things right but Takatori….you scored a 93.00 and you were in 5th place. 5. M. Takatori - 93.00
What do you think should of happened? Being in a comfortable qualifying position should you protest or do you let it go?




I don’t get it!? If you made top 16 then shut up and Drift! At least he made podium.
I don’t think you understand how it works. If you have a chance or opportunity to say qualify 2nd or 3rd as opposed to 5th then you gain a competitive advantage for the whole top 16 grid. Make sense?
Strive for perfection
