Paffet wins in Oschersleben
Gary Paffett is now the first Briton to win a race in the German championship. Are the doubters still doubting?
He starts from 2nd in tomorrow's race too. |

This guy is very, very talented. He might not win the championship, but have a brilliant future ahead. Racing with Rosberg Team, I'll bet he will make a test for McLaren before the end of the season.

He retired from the second race - sometime between lap 6 and lap 11 (I don't know exactly because it was while the TV coverage was taking commercials.
IIRC he's already tested for McLaren F1, for being Autosport Young Driver Of The Year a couple of years ago... |

The important part was winning by a margin of over 9 seconds, first win for team Rosberg and Renault.
gary drove at Magny Cour for a 5 day test this year, McL were very pleased and spoke highly of his drive. Jaxs |
