Amazing but debatable finish... Almost reminded me of a manuever from a video game where you bump on the inside of your competitors quarter panel. If Bergmeister hadn't lifted after getting bumped in that last turn, he probably would have pulled it off...

I think he would have ended up in the wall. It was pretty clear to me that the bump was to slow Jorg enough to get along side, but then what he did next was really bad. It was clear the ferrari was pushing the porsche to the wall, giving Jorg a simple choice: lift or crash. I thought it was a pretty classless move. He was forced into defending his postion because of the mistake he made a few turns earlier. I respect drivers who are humble enough to know when they have been out driven. WWF moves to CYA don't impress me.
