As we were getting to the end of the race, I just tried to keep the Penske behind me, as that was the most important thing for me to do but, with a few laps to go, the AGR car dived down the inside of the Paul Drayson's Aston Martin and didn't quite make it. He took both cars off the track and I was suddenly back into the lead of the P2 battle.

All I needed to do was get to the finish and keep the Penske behind to get our third win of the year. It was tense, but eventually I crossed the line with Bernhard behind me, so we managed to get another great win. The team's strategy has been a huge factor in our wins, and it just shows how well the team is operating at the moment.

With four races left, anything can happen and it is now a straight fight between the #7 Penske and the Patron Highcroft Acura team for the P2 Championship.

Bring it on....
