LMS Silverstone 1000Km

WOW!  What a way to finish the 2008 Le Mans Series season!  What with Peugeot and Audi taking each other off at various stages - and I'm making no judgements on who's fault the first corner was - and battles all the way down the field, guests on Sunday 14th September were treated to an awesome spectacle.

Reports say that 53000 spectators were at Silverstone to see Audi snatch the coveted title from under Peugeot's noses.

Congrats then go to race winners Rinaldo Capello and Allan McNish - and to team mates Mike Rockenfeller and Alexandre Premat who took the championship.

Also to Rob Bell - champion for the 2nd time in the Virgo motorsport Ferrari F430.  Even more incredible, Virgo apparently is a 3 (full time) man team!
