Flying Lizard No. 45 Wins GT at Mosport, No. 44 9th; Lizards Lead in GT Drivers, Team and Manufacturer Championships

August 29, 2010 – Bowmanville, Ontario, Canada – Joerg Bergmeister and Patrick Long took their fourth win of the season today at the Mobil 1 Grand Prix of Mosport, extending their lead in the GT drivers' championship to 22 points. This is the team's first win ever at Mosport. In the No. 44, Darren Law and Seth Neiman finished ninth. This win puts the Lizards back in the lead in the GT team championship and Porsche in the lead in the GT manufacturers' title.

The eventful race came to a dramatic end with a major on-track incident involving a GTC Porsche, which destroyed the racecar and severely damaged a safety barrier. (The driver walked away from the accident with reportedly minor injuries.) Officials red-flagged the race to evaluate the damage to the barrier, ordering the cars into the pits and stopping the clock. 30 minutes later, the officials declared race end, displaying the checkered after a final parade lap. The No. 45, which had led much of the race, was in the lead at the time of the red flag and took the win. The No. 62 Risi Ferrari was second and the No. 92 Rahal Letterman Racing BMW third.
