The first race was amazing.

It's too bad Ben had problems in race 2. It would have been great to see the two of them slugging it out.

...so a 10pt difference going into the final round. ben needs to double at portimao to take the championship.

Do they use race wins as the tie-breaker?

Anyone wanna bet that's he'll double?   A $25 donation says that he won't take the title.

I have a bet re # of wins with Haga v. Ben.  A bet that I've already lost.

Regarding Spies' recovery and re-passing of Haga on the last lap...

Is there another camera angle that shows it better?

I can't believe Spies got back past Haga.
I watched it several times in slow-mo, and it was f'n incredible.

all I can say....Haga says they go back to Bologna for to get more speed for Portamaio and some fettuccini!

should Haga win the championship....what kind of antics you think he'll have for celebration?
