If there was any contact between MS the only contact that caused the incident was when MS swerved in front of WoW. There was NO evidence of MS's hindquarters being driven in towards the rail. Only his front going out which Saez failed to control until too late, Hence the basis for the DQ and suspension.

That all makes sense -- if you accept the stewards ruling.
The unfortunate part is that the stewards ruling could very well be wrong. Then again, it doesn't matter. They have the final say.
