That was the driver of the Acura LMP car that crossed the finish at 1:47 into the video.

Meh from the looks of things not much. ALMS’s website barely reported on it. Autoblog had a quick story about it, but the 911 driver seems pretty carefree about the whole thing. No word from the vette driver.

> The 2009 ALMS season came to a close last night with a four-hour

> The GT2 finish was just as frantic as the overall result. Jörg Bergmeister and Patrick Long won in GT2 for Flying Lizard Motorsports in their Porsche 911 GT3 RSR, a victory enhanced by driver championships for the pair and the second straight team title for the Lizards. It also gave Porsche its 100th Series class victory, a first for any manufacturer.

> Bergmeister finished 1.037 seconds ahead of Corvette Racing’s Jan Magnussen after the two cars banged side-to-side coming out of the final turn. As they beat on each other toward the finish, Magnussen went around hard into the outside wall just before the start-finish line.

> “I’m definitely sorry Jan went into the wall,” Bergmeister said. “I didn’t want that to happen. But it was a banging game. I’m glad he’s OK. It was tough racing. The Corvette passed me the first time at the hairpin but he went in way too deep and I was able to get back around him. He was a little quicker I have to say. I wasn’t trying to figure out where he was gaining time on me. I was trying to stay on track and in front.”

> It was the last in a number of moments between the two cars in the final hour. The two cars swapped positions numerous times and ran nose-to-tail for much of the final half-hour.

While the 911 Flying Lizard team did win for the year. The Vette’s jumped classes midway though the year from GT1 down to GT2. With them running a full year in GT2 next year I’m sure we’ll see more of them playing bumper cars.
