This.

Also, do either of these cars have black box data collectors, which many vehicles have now, which continuously records recent data that may include items such as throttle angle, speed ,yaw and G sensors, gears, RPMs, braking , steering angle in the minutes leading up to a crash , for investigative/ forensic purposes as well as manufacturer analysis in failures .

I.e., what you state better jibe with the data , when there is no video .

Nothing in the tape seems to be any real evidence of racing.

Depends on your definition of racing..... If two cars are both driving a high speeds passing traffic in a reckless way... in roughly the same physical space close enough to collide with one another I'd call it racing... Or close enough that the distinction doesn't matter..

Guess we interpret the video in different ways. The Ferrari was well behind the GTR then comes out of nowhere and crosses two lanes to even be in close proximity to the GTR. I'd have to see more evidence to even suggest that they were racing.

I suggest you plan on attending the trial. There will be all the evidence you will require.

Viewing on a 27" screen shows a slightly different perspective than on a laptop or iPad.

When the GTR first appears on the left side of the screen, his brakes lights were already lit. For a split second, although the Ferrari has already passed the car with the dashcam as is swerving over to the left lane, it almost seems like the GTR was going faster and about to pass the Ferrari ...even though he was already standing on his brakes.
