Nasr Crashes After Endurance Cup Win

Felipe Nasr suffered a dramatic front-stretch accident that brought a bitter end to the Motul Petit Le Mans for the #7 Porsche Penske Motorsport Porsche 963. The former Formula 1 driver was running closely behind teammate Laurens Vanthoor in the #6 factory Porsche 963 when the incident occurred, just moments after Nasr, Julien Andlauer, and Laurin Heinrich clinched the IMSA Michelin Endurance Cup title. lebandit.lat

The crash comes as a disappointing end to what had been a successful weekend for Nasr and his Porsche team, who had just secured the prestigious endurance championship before the accident. Vanthoor, who had been slowed by an unspecified issue, narrowly avoided being caught in the wreck that ended Nasr's race prematurely.
