 Vettel & Schumacher win ROC | « » 12:36 PM 11-3-2009 | |
|
from f1liveAbu Dhabi Grand Prix winner Sebastian Vettel and seven-time world champion Michael Schumacher, have claimed their third consecutive Race of Champions Nations Cup for Team Germany. The pair beat the Team GB pairing of new F1 World Champion, Jenson Button, and three time FIA World Touring Car Champion, Andy Priaulx, in the tie break race of the Nations Cup final. The German drivers defeated teams from the host nation, China, and Finland on their way to the semi-finals. There, they met the fired up American team of Tanner Foust and Travis Pastrana. It looked like an upset could be on the cards, when Foust drifted his way around the parallel track inside the Bird's Nest stadium to beat Schumacher, but Vettel restored honour with victories over both Pastrana and Foust. "It's great to win the Nations Cup for the third time in a row," said Vettel." It's all about team work in this event and I'd like to say thanks to the fans.”

I know HDTheater is broadcasting the 2008 ROC on and off. I'll have to search for 2009 version when I get home. Looking forward to it.

Did hear right that Tanner Foust beat Schumacher? Tanner Foust? WTF? Then Vettel beat somebody else and the Germans  ended up pulling ahead again? Tanner Foust?
