There was a mid-air collision in 18m class today. Both damaged gliders returned to airfield. Such routine is this at WGC level that it did not make news anywhere?

If you look at the score sheet, LK and HK were involved in this occurrence
I have put both igc files together in this GoogleEarth KML file https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/...se4comfort.kmz

It looks like LK turned inside HK during thermalling
HK immediately returned in the direction of Benalla and landed on Baddaginnie (Earlston) airstrip.
LK initially continued the task and flew back a little bit later to Benalla.

This slide was shown during a safety briefing
