That was a hell of a race! Passing in pit lane, down to the line with blows traded in the last turn. Thanks for posting!

I live less than 20 min from Mosport (now Canadian Tire Motorsport Park) so I head up for the AMLS series when I can. Good value and great racing.

Wow...now to let my heart-rate come back down to normal. So, was there any penalty for driving the Vette into the wall, or did it finish as shown?

 

[Larry L.]

So, what was the "officials" ruling on that?

'Anybody know?

 

[Chris Martino]

No penalty to my knowledge - Magnussen suffered a broken tail bone and two ribs - awarded second place.

If I'm not mistaken The corvette had to the let the Porsche go by. Pit radio, "Let 45 go on by".

That's a crap call. I understand the racing, and the bump, but running the car down into the wall was wrong. The Porsche driver should have been DQed.
