impressively defended his British Gas National Diving Championships
crown with a comfortable buffer of 59.45 points.

Casey Stoner took his fourth race win of the season

points in the championship standings.

Audi produced a dream end to a tough weekend as their

Marcel Fassler and Benoit Treluyer fended off Peugeot's stern
challenge to secure the team's 10th win at this event in the past 12 years. |
