Go to EA's forums, I didn't encounter this issue.

I am encountering this problem as well.

I start the race, overtake everyone and stay in the lead the entire 3 laps. I cross the finish line but nothing happens.

THEN when Kurt crosses the line it says he won and MISSION FAILED window pops up.

I searched around online and it appears that a cut scene is supposed to occur when you pass Kurt ?

Anyways if anyone knows how to make the cut scene pop up and post it here, that would be great.

Thank you !

Perhaps you are too fast?

During the first (Of three if I remember correctly.) I passed a few cars (Looked scripted as they slow down and won't try catch up.) then during the second lap I passed a few more in the same way and during the third lap I closed in on Dirker and the cutscene triggered just as I got near him with the mission completing shortly afterwards.
(Trying to avoid potential spoilers.)

does the freeze enemies option work on cars too?

no it does not. not on cars. and a warning: don't use the freeze option too often..it freezes/crashes the game sometimes.
