Red Bull Global Rallycross Washington DC Highlights

Nelson Piquet Jr. earned the first victory of his Red Bull Global Rallycross career in Saturday's Red Bull GRC Washington DC presented by Volkswagen. After finishing runner-up to Patrik Sandell in last year's inaugural race in DC, Piquet turned the tables by holding off Sandell from start to finish in this season’s final.
Piquet’s victory was also the first for SH Rallycross, and came on the heels of a nearly perfect weekend. He turned the second-fastest lap in qualifying, won both of his heat races, and claimed a victory in the semifinal to earn lane choice on the grid. The victory also allowed him to jump from sixth to third place in the Supercar standings with only five races remaining.
Ken Block finished third, earning his class-leading fifth podium finish of the 2015 season. The result extended his Supercar championship lead to 41 points over Sebastian Eriksson of Red Bull Olsbergs MSE. Chip Ganassi Racing’s Steve Arpin and Volkswagen Andretti Rallycross’ Tanner Foust completed the top five.
