Behind The Scenes of Red Bull Global Rallycross's Insane Finale
Behind The Scenes of Red Bull Global Rallycross's Insane Finale-August 2024
2024-02-19 EST 22:11:48

The Global Rallycross finale came down to the wire during the very last round, with Joni Wiman, Ken Block and Nelson Piquet, Jr., all in contention for the top spot. Ford Racing takes us behind the scenes for the final GRC round at Las Vegas.

Three of Ford's angry little rallybeast Fiesta STs were duking it out for the win. Add to that the carnival-like atmosphere of Las Vegas during SEMA and you've got yourself a spectacular weekend of racing.

Block won the race , but Wiman still edged him out in points. Unfortunately, a gearbox failure in the semi-final round took Piquet, Jr., out of contention, but the battle between Wiman and Block for the championship win was nothing short of epic.

The other dudes crashed on the first corner.

Watch as the teams prepare, qualify and ultimately race for the season championship in Las Vegas.

Here's What NASCAR Should Look Like
Here's What NASCAR Should Look Like
