DTM:BMW first victory for 20 years
It’s fair to say that BMW were not expecting success so early in their return to the DTM. They endured a tough baptism at the Hockenheim opener, but bounced back at the second round at Lausitzring. Martin Tomczyk topped the first practice session, and then Bruno Spengler and Augusto Farfus locked out the front row in qualifying.
Spengler went on to win the race, giving BMW their first DTM victory for 20 years. He held off Mercedes driver Gary Paffett for the majority of the race, despite Paffett hounding the BMW all the way to the flag.

WSBK
Tom Sykes (Kawasaki Racing Team) a remporté la seule course WSBK de ce weekend. La manche de Monza ne s'est même pas tenue en intégralité, la pluie venant une nouvelle fois ruiner les conditions de course. C'est à mi-distance que fut prise la décision d'interrompre la course, les concurrents dans les points inscrivant ainsi la moitié des récompenses habituelles.
Sykes fut sans rival devant, s'imposant avec une avance de 9.709 sec sur Leon Haslam (BMW Motorrad Motorsport) et with Eugene Laverty (Aprilia Racing Team). Marco Melandri (BMW Motorrad Motorsport) arrive quatrième devant son public, devant un autre favori local, Max Biaggi (Aprilia Racing Team). A noter, une seule petite seconde sépare les pilotes arrivés entre la 2nde et la 7ème place !
Au championnat, Biaggi compte désormais 97,5 pts, deux unités devant Carlos Checa (Althea Racing Ducati), arrivé 7ème aujourd'hui. Tom Sykes est dans leur train à 91,5 unités.
