It seemed like the refs on galileo missed this update entirely when they made their ruling on the first match of the finals. Overall the referring seemed sub par on galileo and it might just be me being upset about some of the questionable calls against us in the eliminations but this rule seems to clearly state the opposite of the ruling in the first match of the finals.
The thing is, 469 had a tube while they were pushing 254 into their zone. That leaves at least three possible motives:

1) Trying to get the tube in to score.
2) Playing defense on 254.
3) Attempting the 'one move win.'

All three are pretty plausible. I don't think one can so quickly say that the refs did a bad job on this call. The "G61 does not apply" update and the updates to the update are poorly conceived, because the refs have to guess the motives of the drivers in addition to observing what happens on the field. The rules put the refs in a pretty tough spot on this one. I personally wouldn't fault the refs for calling this one in either team's favor.
