I watched a couple of rounds of Formula D and thought the judging was pretty suspect to say the least, but the majority of competitions are the same, I've seen some questionable decisions made at SWRC events, Prodrift and EDC... I've only been to these so far lol!!

I'll watch the vids when I get home, didn't watch it this time.

It could be an irish thing, Eric O Sullivan shouldn't have went out against Grunwald in florida either. Total shite judging!

[PS13!]

thats pure shit! the 350 nearly came to a direct stop when he almost spun .
If you ask me, the viper should of won it by a mile!

[Scamper]

Deans run was clearly a better run, as was said above, Kado nearly came to a complete stop. pure bollox if ya ask me.

my thoughts exactly

Ye thats a load of hoop if you ask me! In the second video he clearly fucked up, had to straightin and still got a better score.

[jincam]

i dont drift but i spectate and it seems that some high rollers get good points to keep them coming back rather than some fella that can only afford the odd run out who can steer much better, money talks

[Kevin'c]

yea ok i think your man in the 350's run would have bin better than deane's if he hadint of allmost spun. but he did and i dont see how he got that score that he did over deanes run. it's a load of shit i think

Judging is always going to be questioned because you can't please everyone but those video's are evidence that the judging in FD has been deteriorating lately. I've witnessed more unbelievable calls this year than ever before over here and the qualifying scores in particular at round 4 were so inconsistent it seemed like the judges weren't even watching half the time.

For a series that is supposed to be the pinnacle of the sport it really should be looking into methods of eliminating this issue and pioneering new ways of making the judging system more consistent and fair for everyone.

I think (imo) that from watching the livestream the other night the maddening thing for me was when you thought it was driver X or maybe a OMT the judges come up with a unanimous decision for driver Y.

I mean if they are going to judge it unfairly at least try and make it look as if its half right. That scenario happened at least twice in the Top16.
