Jack Aiken's IMSA Championship Bid Stays Unsettled After a Late BMW Charge

· 1 min read

BMW WRT's Sheldon Van Der Linde ran down Cadillac's Earl Bamber in the final ten minutes of IMSA's Battle of the Bricks, taking the win at the line. The pass cost Cadillac a result that would have clinched the Driver's Championship early for Jack Aiken. What had shaped up as a Cadillac result turned into a BMW one in the race's closing stretch, and the title fight remains open. For BMW WRT, it was a finish decided in the last ten minutes rather than settled well before the checkered flag.

With reporting from Road & Track.
