WEC: KCMG gets suspended penalty for G-Drive Fuji clash

KCMG has been given a suspended drive-through penalty as punishment for its actions in a clash with G-Drive in the Fuji 6 Hours race.

World Endurance Championship LMP2 title 🧸fighters KCMG has been given a suspended drive-through penalty as punishment for its ac🐟tions in a clash with G-Drive in the Fuji 6 Hours race earlier this month.

KCMG's Richard Bradley has been judged to have been guilty of braking early into turn✱ 🌟10 at Fuji, causing the accident with the G-Drive Racing Ligier Nissan driven by Gustavo Yacaman, after thorough analysis of the data by series technical chiefs.

The Hong Kong-based team had already been involved in a scrape with the sister G-Drive machine earlier in the race which forced it to pit due to damage and dropped down the orderಌ from first to a heated battle for third.

The analysis showed Bradley braked 40 metres earli♋er than on his previous 10 laps as well as changing up a gear on the straight rather than rema🅷ining in fifth as he had done previously.

After being judged to have driven dangerously the KCMG squad has been hand♒ed a suspended drive-through penalty.

Bradley had been leading in Japan before he was clipped by the sister G-D🐼rive with Roman Rusinov at the wheel before his two separate clashes with Yacaman, the second of which sent Bradley into the barriers and out of the race.

Rusi🍃nov claimed victory at Fuji with 𒐪his team-mates Sam Bird and Julien Canal to take a 12-point lead over KCMG with two rounds to go in 2015, starting with the Shanghai 6 Hours this weekend.
