WTCC Donington 2011

MULLER AND HUFF ENCORE
Yvan Muller and Rob Huff encored their Race 1 result, finishing first and second again in today's second race.
Chevrolet point men had to recover from their 10th and 9th positions on the starting grid and were given a big help by the competitors in front of them who were involved in a series of collisions during the first laps. These collisions eliminated Tiago Monteiro and Michel Nykjær and delayed Colin Turkington, Tom Coronel and Javier Villa.
Just like in Portugal, Muller and Huff were also involved in a controversial action that saw the Frenchman hitting the back of his rival's car and taking advantage for moving ahead. An action that is currently investigated by the Stewards.
Franz Engstler claimed third position (and victory in the Yokohama Trophy), his best result ever in the championship. The German racer managed to stay off the incidents and rejected Coronel's assaults in the final laps.

@WayneBurgess1 BTCC (British Touring Car Champinship) is where they only race in Britain, and WTCC (World Touring Car Championship) is where they race all over the world.

Very very strange that Muller was not handed a 30second penalty for causing an avoidable accident and gaining an advantage.................
