BRASELTON, Ga. (AP) — The final championship of the North American motorsports season came down to the final turn of the 10-hour Petit Le Mans at Road Atlanta. Ricky Taylor went off course attempting to make the title-clinching pass of Felipe Nasr. Taylor drove through the grass as he blew the turn, then steadied his Acura back onto the track. Nasr, though, sailed past him in a Cadillac to nip Taylor at the finish line. The DPi title was going to whichever car crossed the finish line first. Nasr finished second behind Mazda Motorsports, a race winner in its final event competing in the sports car series.
