Perhaps the ruling was that even though 1270 wasn't shaped like a wedge, it ended up acting like a wedge and thus the tipping was their fault. I don't know, I'm just speculating like all the rest of us.

Oh, and the head ref on the Finals was Chief Ref Aiden Browne, who is also a member of the GDC I believe.
Upon speaking with the head referee, the teams were told that the Red Dragon was disqualified because of "contact made outside the bumper zone." Maybe we need more than one referee calling the final rounds so we have a consensus and limit any bias.
