Broke on Last Lap: After the leader crashed out of the race, Johnny O'Connell in a Cadillac CTS V.R took over the top spot in the Pirelli World Challenge. With a full course yellow, victory was all but ensured. However, his car picked up a piece of the leader's brake disk lodged in his radiator. Despite the slow speeds behind the pace car, his engine couldn't last, expiring halfway around the final lap. He wound up eighth.
