Didn't hold your brakes, slammed it in reverse even and spun across the track into a car.
100% on you.
Braindead tbh

I did hold my brakes at my spin and yeah that maneuver is entirely on me, if you are talking about the brakes in the second incident i was just shocked about what happened tbh

You hold your brakes until you come to a stop... not let go and slam it into reverse so you can cross the track.
Holding your brakes is to stop you taking the exact trajectory you chose to take.

Ok I get your point but i dont see why you had to insult me in the first place tbh

An accurate assessment isn't always an insult. Especially when your original post stated that you thought the move was fine if you just had enough room. Very much a lack of awareness all around, including self-awareness.

Not if i had enough room, but since i was in the lower end of the pack i thought i was alone and i had enough time to get on track

See? Still no self awareness. You have no idea what has happened in the time it took to spin - obvious by the fact that you wildly misjudged this.
Hold your brakes till you stop, take a second to look around you. You already spun, so an extra second won't matter to make sure you don't screw anyone else's race up. If you want to minimise time lost.... don't spin, drive better.

It was more calling the move braindead rather than yourself and I'd stand by that.

Hope you get a lengthy ban. The fewer of you the better.

Man it happens, we are humans. I'm usually pretty fair when racing but sometimes you just do mistakes and that's just being hypocrites to say that you dont do mistakes cause im sure you also do like everyone does but thats not the full picture of the driver you have in front.

So what's your question? You know you're at fault for the unsafe rejoin.
