Scotland has another world champion this
morning after Audi’s Allan McNish clinched his first World Endurance Drivers
Championship title along with team mates Tom Kristensen and Loic Duval.
Yesterday’s 6 hour race in Shanghai was won by the Number 1 Audi
R18 e-tron quattro of Andre Lotterer, Benoit Treluyer and Marcel Fassler, but third
place was enough for the Number 2 Audi, driven by McNish, Kristensen and Duval,
to claim the FIA World Endurance Drivers Championship.
That means Scots have now won a total of TEN world titles on 2, 3
and 4 wheels since Fergus Anderson scored our very first world title success in
the 350cc motor cycle racing world championship way back in 1953.
