I love that finish. The vette totally deserved it. Over the last 10-15 laps the vette and porsche traded paint 5 or 6 times.

That clip goes up there as one of best finishes to a race ever IMO. Take your competition out 20 meters before the finsh line.

But hey at least the vette finished the race...albeit in pieces. They couldve gotten stuck 1 or 2 m away and came in last

That was exciting. Vette was clearly faster but he should know you can't dive into pit lane to pass, also shouldn't have slammed into the back of the porsche because he couldn't stick a pass earlier, clearly a desperation move. Not saying he deserved what he got but damn.

I saw that he did deserve it and (for once) the commentators of a race were spot on - you don't play that game and expect to come out unscathed. Props to the Flying Lizard driver

Very NICE race! Thanks for posting this.

Btw... I met Bergmiester a few years back at his father's Audi/VW/Porsche dealership in Hanover. A friend of mine knows them well, also a fellow racer. We were driving past the family dealership after going to the Essen Motor Show. lol They all are quite nice guys. Very quiet types. Papa Bergmeister use to race for Audi. his sons race in GT2 now.

Here is one of dad's race cars on display at the Audi Museum in Ingolstadt.
