Porsche has claimed its first overall victory in the FIA World Endurance Championship following an action-packed and incident-filled season-ending Six Hours of Sao Paulo.

Neel Jani took the No. 14 Porsche 919 Hybrid to the monumental win, in a race that ended under the safety car following a heavy crash by teammate Mark Webber in the final 30 minutes of the race.

Webber escaped serious injury in the high-speed impact, which also collected a GTE-Am class Ferrari, although the track was unable to be fully cleaned for the race to restart.

Aside from the late-race crash, Porsche enjoyed a breakout race, with the No. 20 car of Webber, Brendon Hartley and Timo Bernhard leading nearly the first half of the race.

However, an intense battle for the lead developed between all six of the factory LMP1-H entries through the middle stages, with Toyota and Audi also enjoying time out front.

The No. 14 Porsche, which suffered an early race puncture, reclaimed control in the final hour, with Jani taking it to the win.
