JMB Racing celebrates a historic, zero-lap victory at Imola as Sam O'Sullivan takes top honors in a chaotic start-line disaster.

*TICKER - IMOLA SPEEDWAY GAZETTE: RED FLAGS, FLYING CARBON, AND A VICTORY BUILT ON PURE, UNADULTERATED MANA TAP!* IT IS A MASTERPIECE! A TRIUMPH OF THE HIGHEST ORDER! JMB Racing is tapping out five blue mana and casting Counterspell on the entire GT1 field at the Autodromo Enzo e Dino Ferrari! Sam O'Sullivan has delivered a breathtaking, zero-lap masterclass in the #09 Ferrari 575 GTC across 0.00 kilometers of legendary Italian asphalt!

Our strategy was simple: play Island, pass turn, and watch the entire grid collapse into a rules-text paradox before the red lights even went out. While Carletto's Saleen S7-R suffered a catastrophic DNF and Fernando Horta's mysterious absence left the paddock whispering about illegal deck manipulation, our machine sat on the grid like a Platinum Angel refusing to lose!

Shivan Dragon (JMB Lead Tactician): Tap two red and three colorless Graurrrrrrrrr! We didn't even need to attack! The opponent's life total was already zero when they forgot to read the oracle text on the starting grid! Samurai swords and Saleens alike crumble before our flying keyword!

The Imola Press Gaggle

(Barnaby Quill - The Daily Tapped-Out) Sam, how does it feel to win a race without completing a single rotation of the circuit?

Sam O'Sullivan (Race Winner): We simply utilized our sideboard effectively. When the referee checked our graveyard, the rules committee had no counter-play left.

(Gideon Jura - Planeswalker Weekly) Is it true that Fernando Horta was merely a token creature sacrificed to pay for your upkeep cost?

Shivan Dragon (JMB Lead Tactician): *SMOKE POURS FROM NOSTRILS* Horta was countered on resolution! Next question before I incinerate your entire hand!
