Nasr Crashes After Winning Endurance Cup

Former Formula 1 driver Felipe Nasr suffered a dramatic crash at the Motul Petit Le Mans, bringing a bitter end to his race with the #7 Porsche Penske Motorsport Porsche 963. The wreck occurred on the front stretch while Nasr was running closely behind teammate Laurens Vanthoor in the #6 factory Porsche 963.

The accident came just moments after Nasr, Julien Andlauer, and Laurin Heinrich had secured the IMSA Michelin Endurance Cup title for their team. Vanthoor had been slowed by something unspecified, which may have contributed to the close proximity that led to Nasr's accident. macnevers-and-co.beer
