US District Judge, Phillip S Gutierrez, found the car maker innocent in the fatal crash, involving Walker and Rodas in a Carrera GT, in November 2013.

“Plaintiff has provided no competent evidence that death occurred as a result of any wrongdoing on the part of defendant,” the judge ruled.

In 2014, the widow of Rodas,Kristine Rodas, sued Porsche.

She claimed that the Carrera GT lacked proper safety features, a fuel cell and a crash cage, adding that of this resulted in the crash that killed her late husband, and Walker.
