I just want to highlight this. 1296 is a great team and their drivers are a class act. It might not have helped in this situation as far as the ref's ruling but I know having the opposing team on your side during a ruling like that can help to elevate the spirits on your own team.

I saw that match and it was confusing as to what exactly the refs were giving the red card for. They announced it was for flipping 1296 and I don't think they were ever out of play for more than a second or two and it definitely was not intentional.
