Actually, it was the 2nd that enters the zone then e-stops. but that's not my point. The rules say that you need to show EFFORT to leave, or get a red card. If you can't go under the tunnel because 469 is blocking it, make an attempt to clear the bump. If you flip trying to get over the bump, your partner in the zone better try to show that effort because not even an E-Stop protects you from that. 2 robots flipped in the far zone after attempts to leave most likely would not incur any penalties since the original one was forced by 469
