I actually thought this was one of the better races. I struggled a bit during the now predictable mid race lull but it kinda picked up again with 12 or so laps to go, Kristensen and Bernd's battle was fairly entertaining I thought.

I'm a bit of a fan of Timo Scheider so I was a bit miffed he didn't get onto the podium, I suspected he had being 'moved' aside but it would seem his tyres were somewhat past their best and Ekstrom was gonna have him in the end anyway...if Dr Ulrich is to be believed.

I hate to say this but, Luhr and Rockenfeller are kinda reminding me of Biela and McNish's stint in the DTM for Audi. Sad sight to see them struggle for all out pace. I had hoped they would adapt far better and quicker to the DTM than their other sports car colleagues did.

Jamie Green must be biting his nails about next season.
