Just like you back your crew I back my driver and my driver swore he didn’t hit that cone. But I still believe firmly in what I said in this thread, a promoter should make some type of effort to record each event and not rely on an outside source to come up with the footage. Not only for situations like this but for liability issues.
Kind of surprised you didn't have someone there recording their driver or a Go-Pro in their car like a vast majority of teams do. If not for policing officiating from your perspective, but for data acquisition.
I came up with a very basic replay system that used a video mixer for a track I worked for and the replay went undefeated every time a driver challenged a call. Point is a call is more likely to go against you if a track is carrying a video system than it is to over turn a decision in your favor.
