Well, he eventually got the replay to us and it's a good thing, it clearly showed that from his POV there was still about 1m distance between he and I (in his reality) at the point where his car veered into me (in my reality). It totally makes sense, given we know that cars tend to go straight and coast when a player doesn't get timely network updates from another player. So in this case, the middle of the final corner, his car going straight instead of continuing to turn would result in my game thinking he drifted up the bank and into me. Tough luck for me, but when I watched
his replay, I thought "I wouldn't have stopped and waited, either!"
This is as close as we got in his replay:
