Global Rallycross Supercars Final: Las Vegas

,

After setting the fastest time in qualifying, Foust was sitting on pole position for the final round with Scott Speed, Ken Block, and Toomas Heikkinen completing the rest of the first row. Steve Arpin, Patrik Sandell, Travis Pastrana, and Bryce Menzies were in the second row and Sverre Isachsen and Rhys Millen in the rear. Rhys Millen gave up in turn one due to mechanical problems and Scott Speed's car ended up damaged enough that he was also out. Foust jumped the start so he had to take a stop and go penalty that left him third behind Pastrana and Block. 
 
In heat 2, Moro had mechanical problems and was unable to finish the race but ended up going to the LCQ.
 
Isachsen had managed to squeak into the final round based on a disqualification by Piquet in the LCQ.
 
Some cars took quite a beating after nose to tarmac or rear end contact.
 
Pat Moro had some mechanical problems and ignored the red flag, instead staying out to complete every lap. Kids, don't do this at home.
