I would like to know how america's people can love Nascar having a terrific racing series like that... ALMS forever.

Greatest rivalry in motor sport racing in my opinion. Ferrari vs Porsche.

Think this has to be the best end to a race I've ever seen, incredible :)

@TheYankeesdawg The race is nearly classificaded as a F1 race. But the race ist not finieshed after x-laps. In this case it's finished after 12h+last lap. So here you can see, the ferrari crosses the finish line first in GT2 after 12h+last lap and won the race.

i thought that in endurance racing it was whoever did the most laps won... so the ferrari and the porsche had each done the exact same amount of laps over the entire 12 hour race? can someone explain this to me, i follow formula 1, not le mans.

@ducatiracing If it's any lap other than the last, it's maybe a bit much. On the last lap, it's fair game. He didn't wreck the Porsche, he just made a little extra room for himself. Let's face it, if these were touring cars, it would be normal racing.

@Kw12345ff As an American, particularly one from the midwest, this question has had me scratching my head my entire life. Year in and year out the ALMS produces some of the best racing and most beautiful cars in the world. They are making baby steps into mainstream media with their deal with ESPN and ABC, but they have a long way to go before truly chipping away at Nascar.

@redphiveII It was de Corvette that touched the Porsche in the last corner and than run itself in the wall.

Typical Ferrari, just like this weekend @ Laguna Seca. Porsche forever.

A small tap as part of any racing incidence is fine. IMO, the Ferrari had been bumping the Porsche intentionally, which is obviously not caused by any lack of grip from the car, it was completely driver intended. It should have been reconsidered by the race committee. But that's them and this one's like four years ago...
