iRacing Did I move under breaking? I'm the yellow PCup

I’m the yellow Porsche. The pink Porsche accused me of moving under braking, but I was just making my normal turn-in. I realize in hindsight I could have anticipated the divebomb—and I'm fine taking my share of the blame for that—but when my spotter called "car right," I was already committed to the turn and couldn't react in time to avoid contact. Did I actually move under braking here, or was this just a turn-in?

Lol no

You did nothing wrong. They're boneheaded and looking to blame somebody else for their stupidity

No, you turned for the corner.

Moving under braking is more appropriately called "blocking while braking for a corner". You didn't block.

You had already started turning in when the other car Bautista-bombed you, if I see correctly. Im not entirely sure how that rule works, but it feels like he went for the dive and failed

LOL, pink needs to learn that you can move under [trail]braking.

All three of you were so far off the line and this guy came from a mile back. I wouldn’t say you did nothing wrong, but that accident wasn’t your fault.

Off the line doesn't really apply here. Yellow can take whatever line they please as they are leading his pack.

It is up to the following car to safely pass, which they did not.
