'Gran Turismo Sport' is more than just three letters on the deck lid, it's a mindset. GTS is a way of thinking about a car, a way of eking out every inch of performance that a Porsche can produce.

Sadly, things didn't go his way, as his CLR-GT1 was blown slightly askew, and he didn't quite "stick" the landing.
