#WTCC – Engstler breaks Chevy’s winning spree

Franz Engstler won his first WTCC race on race two of his home event at Oschersleben, making himself a belated present for his 50th birthday (last Monday) and also obtaining the first victory for the BMW 1.6-litre turbo engine. At the end of an exciting race, Engstler crossed the line ahead of race one winner Alain Menu and Gabriele Tarquini, a podium full of experience that had the better of the young exuberance of Norbert Michelisz who threw a probable victory to the winds by spinning from the lead.
