Statistically the fastest driver in GRC, Ken Block, gets ready for the final Global RallyCross race of the season this morning (practice sessions and heats begin today for Thursday night’s race). Block is still searching for his first GRC win of the year, which, if he’s able to get it in Las Vegas, would be added to a second-place finish at the X Games Barcelona make-up race in Munich earlier this year, as well as a second-place finish at GRC Bristol.
However, Block’s finishing results are more to blame with the now traditional first corner mayhem of GRC courses and general bad luck. Statistically, Block is the fastest man in Global RallyCross and he’s got the stats to prove it:
- Block has had 4 top seeds out of a possible 8, the best in the GRC
- Block has an average 3.25 seeding position, also the best in the GRC (2013 series champion Toomas Heikkinen is second with 4.13)
- Block has achieved 9 heat wins out of a possible 11, which is also the best in GRC
To see if Block can overcome his season of bad luck in Global RallyCross and seize the top podium spot in Las Vegas, be sure to tune in and watch, Thursday, November 7th live on ESPN2 at 7 PM ET.
