Shimmer and Cosmo got totally screwed. Should have been a red flag once the safety marble didn't deploy.

[@eliezersmarbleraces3137]

But a red flag can be only waved in the case of huge pileups or track invaders, and since it's only one marble stuck there never was.

[@DerekRawlings]

Absolutely outrageous that the marble who performed the best was punished for another marble's mistakes. Controversial outcome, and as a Swarmer just looking for something positive to take out of this middling season, I'm just really bummed out about this.

[@time.worn-soul8243]

Not really. No guarantee that they would have kept their positions on the restart. Also even though the safety marble didn't deploy, there is no guarantee it would have dislodged the stuck marble. All in all it was just incredibly bad luck that they happened to have the same line that had a marble stuck.

[@elementalist3190]

The bad gets worse when you realize that had Cosmo taken different split path(preferably the shortest one) he would A) Been 1st with a massive lead, B) would have had Minty Fresh behind him blocking the pursuers and C) would have most likely ended up in 1st giving both him and his team 25 pts (sending him in the individual to the 11th spot right before Yellow eye) and as such givin his team(and Starry) a relatively plausible chance of wining both the individual and team competition. As if Starry would have ended up winning if he got 1st in the upcoming race ofcourse under the condition that Clementine got 10th or lower and Red Eye 4th or lover

Man, what a battle from Orangin! Fell all the way to second to last near the beginning of the race and fought its way back to not only get sixth, but build the O’rangers lead over CCI in the points standings. Although, considering how crazy the battle was between Mimo and Iceberg, I can see why the O’rangers race comeback was overlooked. You took your eyes off the leaders for a second and there would be a lead change. All-in-all, great race. This might have been one of the most exhilarating races of the season.

pretty sure you're supposed to give lines for spoilers friend

[@richardtaylor5606]

Orangin definitely marble of the day - 2 more laps may have made the podium

[@sageWENG]

I think the yellow flag fiasco diminishes a lot from the quality of the race. Minty Fresh's hang up and the subsequent failure of the safety marble/race control. Racers shouldn't be worried about the track preventing them from racing, getting stuck is not a feature of the track; bad course management/planning. I think since the safety marble was stuck as well it should have been a race restart; not even a lap in and they have restarted in a previous race I believe. BUT, at least Orangin got it in gear and salvaged the race for us. OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

This race by Orangin was the most O´Rangers race I´ve seen my entire life: - You´re fighting for the team championship victory - You´re fighting for the individual championship victory - Qualifies 11th - Drops it to 19th in the very first lap - Somemow miracle-recovers it to 6th But shoutout to the Lazy Cats Eyes! This should´ve been the race where they would seal the deal and get the back to back championship. Instead they demonstrate on how to choke their way from 2nd to 16th. I´m not complaining though... :)

I want to see how Minty Fresh got caught in the 4 way split, that had more implications than was let on a bit. Not only did Shimmer get affected from the contact but so did Cosmo, and also with the battle between Iceberg and Mimo, who is to say that Minty Fresh didn't play a little part into all that. That being said, The battle between Gliding Glaciers and Team Momo was very nice to at the end, even tho I think it should been a 4 way battle with Shimmer and Cosmo added into the mix but eh who knows.

[@HydroXCP]

Was watching at x0.25 speed. At 2:26, you can briefly see Minty Fresh stuck at the start of the split. After the collision with Shimmer and Cosmo, you can see Shimmer being unable to make it past the split, but Mocha does. At 1:58, Minty Fresh is jostling with a couple of other marbles in the back, and looks to be losing speed. Then Minty Fresh hugs the wall and seems to have stopped as the camera pans away at 2:00. So Minty Fresh likely never entered the split and just parked itself at the beginning of it, from what I can tell.

What a race by Mimo! Got held up for so long by Minty Fresh (blue flags anyone?) but still managed to clutch out the win with one of the most beautiful overtakes I've ever seen. That's #momostrong for ya! Midnight Bay is easily the most exciting course in Marbula 1, truly fitting for the penultimate race. Wonderful job again, Jelle!

[@FoDaddy]

There needs to be inquiry over the early yellow flag debacle. When the safety marble couldn't be deployed, the red flag should've come out. Several marbles have good runs ruined through no fault of their own. Unacceptable.

[@abluguitar]

I don't know what is happening to Yellow Eye, it's like he had lost all of his confidence. You cannot make the same mistake EVERY SINGLE LAP in a race. You cannot start SECOND and end the race SIXTEENTH. You cannot flop like that at the middle of the race and lose 10 spots in only 2 laps. YOU CANNOT END IN THE BOTTOM 5 TWO WEEKS IN A ROW WHEN YOUR TEAM IS TRYING TO WIN A CHAMPIONSHIP. It's pretty clear that he is not ready at the moment to continue as second pilot, I would like to see, as some people said last week, a replacement for him. I hope next year the team gives the opportunity to Green, Blue or maybe Cian; because this second part of the season was horrible for Yellow Eye and now Red Eye has to do a really great race next week to cover this disaster if we want to win the championship again, and even if he wins the race we don't depend of ourselfs completely. IT'S GOING TO BE A REALLY EXCITING END FOR THIS SEASON, I'M VERY HYPED!

[@abbikinghorn991]

I agree... There is so much pressure on Red Eye now for the final race, in front of a home crowd! I don't know if Yellow Eye has had some sort of breakdown in his personal life, but at this level of racing TOTAL FOCUS IS REQUIRED! It's going to be vital for Red Eye to do well in the qualifiers now to get us a good position on the grid for the final race. Go Red Eye! We believe in you. #EyesOnThePrize!

[@zaccaryroberts]

Yellow eye has really had a disappointing display this season. I would like to see him race because he did well in the previous seasons but this year he has been terrible. 2nd place start to 16th place, losing 14 spots is atrocious. On top of that not putting in enough effort after the his previous race he performed poorly in, I wanna see a replacement next season to someone who wants to win. SMH

[@abluguitar]

@@zaccaryroberts I mean, yes, it was disapointing, but we all are heated due to this last two races and what that has meant to the team championship battle, we can't forget that he did really well at the start of the season and that ending 13th of 40 marbles is really really hard. Yes he disapointed the fans and performed poorly at the end, but he is still one of the top marbles of the competition. I agree with the thought of replacing him next season and give an opportunity to the others, but I just wanted to give some perspective to the situation.

Couldn't agree more terrible decision by the safety marbles

[@HydroXCP]

Shimmer got punished pretty hard for that overtake of Pinky Panther after Lap 1 :( . Then Minty Fresh just kinda interfered for the rest of the race. Totally unfair for them getting stuck in last as well. If not a restart, then a rerack of positions after the end of Lap 1 would’ve been nice imo.

@@derekpolischeck9268 I do hope you know I don't blame Minty Fresh. It was the track staff's failure not Fresh's they did all they could

[@trimmershave]

Completely incorrect procedure to not bring out the safety marble or the red flags, they exist solely to protect running marbles from having their races ruined by a stuck marble, Shimmer lost the lead, Cosmo lost 7 positions because of minty fresh and galactic lost the very slim chance they had to still be in the championship running. This kind of mistakes should never happen. #VoidTheRace

[@derekpolischeck9268]

Waaa

[@hectorwalker3229]

While the fault in the safety marble lane is undeniably a problem, there's a clear precedent for not red-flagging a situation like that. Back in O'raceway S1 we have the same thing happen with Rapidly helping Wospy after they fell off the belt, no red flag needed. It's heartbreaking, but a red flag wasn't necessary, just fixes to the safety system.

[@KCSutherland]

Shimmer and Cosmo had every chance to recover. It's not like losing spots in the first lap prevents them from making a recovery. Orangin did it. Mallard did it. Iceberg made a massive recovery and nearly won from it. All 3 marbles that moved up as a result of the crash immediately lost those spots back by the next lap. Shimmer and Cosmo lost because they didn't race well enough to win.

[@TrailsVonMudder]

Completely incorrect procedure to not just stop the whole race, stop recording, rerack the marbles in their starting positions, and rerecord the whole thing from the start. It was lap one. Just try it all over again

[@jclkaytwo]

@@KCSutherland you're missing the point. shimmer and cosmo shouldn't have even _had_ to recover in the first place. they were punished for doing well. simple as that.

[@dairyfiend6929]

Such a terrible decision by management to continue with the race after the carnage. Not only did it punish the front runners, but it completely demolished several team chances of winning the cup. Whomever wins the cup now, can thank the referees this time for awful handling of the situation.

[@randomripoff123]

yikes, minty fresh getting stuck on the track completely ruined the race for cosmo and shimmer. as others have said, wish there had been a different decision made, but what are you gonna do, i guess. it took team galactic entirely out of the running for the title--it was clear that cosmo and shimmer were the ones to hit and dislodge minty fresh. great fight throughout at the marbles who ended up the frontrunners, and lots of exciting changes, but yeah. not feeling great about how that went--you can see cosmo drop like 7 places in one lap because of it. :/

[@alienworm1999]

JMRC dropped the ball on this one, it was a mickey mouse Grand Prix. Refusing to call a restart/red flag when the safety marble failed to deploy put Minty Fresh in an incredible amount of danger from oncoming traffic, and forced the lead marbles to lose position and compete with a lapped marble for the entire rest of the race. This was incredibly unsafe for all of the drivers involved and an investigation over the release mechanism should begin immediately

[@eliezersmarbleraces3137]

Jelle hasn't revealed yet as to why the release mechanism failed, also Minty Fresh didn't screw lead marbles, they all screwed themselves.

Yeah-- this season has been a disappointment for sure. If the Wisps fail to qualify for ML22 (and I REALLY hope they do qualify), I think their time in M1 will be over, at least in the short term.
