V-WTCC News (V-WTCC - The Virtual World Championship)
The second Semi-Final event was dominated by the white army. At the circuit of Brno the BMW drivers swept around the track and left the rest to sniff the dust.
At June 14th the qualified drivers fastened their ‘seatbelts’ to take a shot at the podium positions and the invitations to the season final at Monza. The competition was slightly modified to meet the temporarily smaller capacity. The field was split in two and two heats would decide who would participate in a final race for the prizes.
It had been no secret that the BMWs were the favorites to win, as they proved to be significantly faster in the ranking of Brno. And so they did. In both heats BMW scored a one-two and in the final heat the four of them got away from the Seats, who proved to offer the most resistance with drivers Viktor Szabo and Ismail Sancak. Honda and Chevrolet had to do with the remaining places, though it was clear that limits of these cars were tested and maximum result achieved.
A top four BMW was only prevented when BMW driver Rene Hiddel made a mistake and spun off, leaving the way open for the other three BMWs to divide the podium positions. Danny Engels and Daniel Struck battled for second till the very end, but they could not catch Nils Naujoks, who successfully safeguarded his leading position.
The Chevrolet HHR, the Grand Prize of V-WTCC 2008, has three new potential owners. Six spots are taken for the final event and ten more are available to whoever manages to beat the rest to it.
