Gabriele Tarquini stood proudly on the podium at the end of an incident packed Race 2 at the FIA WTCC event at the Salzburgring, Austria. Although the experienced Italian headed the field from his pole position at the start, and held on to this advantage after a long race delay caused by a multi-car accident on the start line, he was finally overhauled on lap 13 but hung on tenaciously to the flag. Castrol Honda team mate Tiago Monteiro joined Gabriele to celebrate a double podium appearance whilst Norbert Michelisz was also celebrating his fourth place finish in the Zengo̎ Motorsport Civic. Mehdi Bennani finished 8th to highlight the reliable performance of the Honda Civics.
A great weekend for our Honda drivers!!
