MASS PENALTY FAVOURS PRIAULX

RSS
5 Sep 2010

15 drivers were awarded 30-second time penalties for exceeding the maximum speed of 90 kmh allowed during the rolling start of the first race. However, the only change in the race results concerns Coronel (who slips from fourth to sixth) and the pair Monteiro-Priaulx who gain one position moving up to fourth and fifth respectively. In terms of Championship points, this reduced the gap between Muller and Priaulx from 13 to 11.

Alain MENU: “This win has been a long time coming. My season started well in Brazil but Marrakech was a disaster. Today luck went my way with Huff getting a black flag. It was a bit unfortunate for him as there is always a domino effect going into turn one here, but after I got the lead I just drove my Chevrolet to the end and it was perfect, although I had to drive very carefully in the last laps in order to save my tyres.”

Andy Priaulx led Augusto Farfus across the line to take a comfortable 1-2 finish for BMW Team RBM in Oschersleben this afternoon. Priaulx now moved ahead of Gabriele Tarquini to second in the championship just 13-points adrift of leader Yvan Muller who completed the podium. Kristian Poulsen claimed a clear win in the Independents’ Trophy, his second of the day, finishing sixth whilst Michel Nykjær was again the best rookie finishing in a brilliant fourth overall.
