I can see that one. Blue robot was partially tipped, and red robot kept pushing. Blue Robot was pushed onto its bumper, and then Red kept pushing it a foot or two before Blue fully tipped. Once Blue was on its side (bumper), you could argue that G23 comes into play, and it becomes a protected robot for 10 seconds to give it a chance to untip itself. You can also argue a G24 (contact inside the frame perimeter) which occurred when the Blue robot was on its side (Red contacted the undercarriage of Blue, which is within Blue's frame perimeter).
