Chris Kehagias wins at Donington park, with Vaggelis 2nd and Kibokin 3rd, It was an exciting race through out the pack.
At the start things looked fairly clean, Mackis and Herman made some slight contact which unfortunately caught Tudor which unfortunately put him wide and dropped him right down the field. Tippet managed to get a good start and went into 3rd place with Kibokin close in 4th, Tippet managed to chase and pressure Mackis into a mistake on the first lap, Mackis ran wide spinning infront of the recovering Tudor who had no where to go and collected Mackis' car which put Tudor out of the race, Mackis was able to recover but finished a lap down. meanwhile the action was frantic with overtakes going on and some mistakes letting others through, Tippet locked up into the hairpin which allowed Herman and Kibokin to pass on the first lap.
Kibokin managed to get past Chris after he made a mistake off the final corner on lap1 with Herman closing up right behind him. Kibokin ran a little wide off the exit of a corner and spun across the track allowing Chris to regain the lead on lap 2, but Herman managed to slide down the inside of him at the hairpin taking the lead of the race, with Chris managing to get past a couple of laps later and then Herman made a mistake on lap 8 which dropped him down to 5th
Tippet was chasing hard but something was vibrating the car so he was losing time to those behind him each lap, by lap 5 or 6 Kibokin had caught back upto Tippet, and they battled with each other with Tippet keeping his position. Clearly the battle was allowing Vaggelis to catch as by lap 10 the three were battling on track for 2nd place.
With Chris pitting on lap 14, Tippet managed to take the lead, his planned stategy was no stopping but the tyres were destroyed and Tippet pitted 2 laps later and rejoined in 2nd with Vaggelis breathing hard down his neck and he got past Tippet on lap 18 at the Hairpin and set about closing the gap to Chris.
The fight for the final podium postition was intense, Kibokin managed to finally get past Tippet after a fantastic battle for 3rd with 2 or 3 laps left and Herman applied pressure to Tippet for 4th but he was able to hold off Herman for the position. With Revlight sealing another 1-2 finish!
Wow this was a brilliant race really fantastic action!
