In the final event of X Games 15, Kenny Brack of Sweden managed to steal the gold from defending champion Travis Pastrana. Midway through the race, Pastrana’s car become lodged between the barrier walls. Understanding he had no chance of catching up to Brack, Pastrana ceded the race.

Only 25, Pastrana is one of the most decorated athletes in X Games history. This is his second year that he hasn’t walked away with a medal since beginning to compete in 1999. On the other hand, Brack’s win is quite the success story. Brack, who is a retired IndyCar driver, had never before competed in an X Games. At 43, Brack was one of the oldest competitors at the Games and is relatively new to rally car racing.
