Each year, the Race of Champions gathers some of the best drivers in the world and pits them against one another on a 1.2-kilometer indoor track. On the line: Glory. They're already rich and famous racecar drivers, what else do they need?
The cars range from the Audi R8 LMS to a VW Scirocco to the KTM X-Bow and the racing is always competitive.
Wrap-up video and spoilers after the jump.
Winning this year's ROC was Sebastien Ogier, a French rally driver. The team competition was won, for the fifth time, by Team Germany which is manned by Sebastian Vettel and Michael Schumacher.
Team USA -- Pastrana and Deegan -- didn't make it into the semifinals.

At least use someone from ALMS, Grand Am, or Indycar so they can handle right hand turns. Corvette Racing kinda won Le Mans in class, which should have put Tommy Milner in for us. Or what about the endurance king this year, Joey Hand?
