Looking a the video of the track (wish I'd been able to go!) it looks like it rewarded being a bit steady, so there may have been cars in the final who didn't have the ultimate speed of the top few. Combine high closing speed with a tight/narrow track and you are going to get cars running into each other!

Totally agree and I think sometimes the A final is suprisingly clean with some excellent close racing, but there is the odd occassion where a pile up occurrs... But at the end of the day I dont think there's anything wrong with the rules or the way we currently run events...
