[QUOTE="OSFlanker, post: 181607, member: 12"] [SIZE=5][B]Priaulx and BMW Retain WTCC Titles[/B][/SIZE] [I]An exciting season comes to a climax at the Macau GP[/I] Going into the Macau race weekend, 9 drivers still have the mathematical chance of becoming the 2006 WTCC champion, with Augustus Farfus in a privately entered Alfa Romeo in the lead. With 2 rounds of racing in Macau, anything is possible and anyone within 20 points can still win the championship. Andy Priaulx in the new E90 put himself into pole position for race 1 and after the usual Macau mayhem, led from start to finish with some of his rivals getting stuck behind heavy crashes.
