With the lead theirs, Farfus and Muller went on to have a bitter battle of their own, the lighter Muller crawling all over the back of his Team Deutschland team-mate, a tussle that likely had Charley Lamm slightly nervous at its close confines. The inevitable finally happened at the start of lap five when Muller pulled out from beneath his team-mate and claimed into the lead.
Pulling away from Tarquini, Porteiro was the next
BMW on the move, the race one winner not getting the best of starts but making up for it as the race progressed, passing Larini early in the race for fifth, before catching and passing James Thompson's Alfa Romeo, the Brit having a wonderful race from ninth on the grid. However, he couldn't keep Porteiro at bay, the Spaniard sprinting off in pursuit of Tarquini, who, like he did with Muller and Farfus, actually waved him by and into third place with just a couple of laps to go.
With Muller leading Farfus and Porteiro over the line, it all combined to give BMW a full podium on a dominant weekend that has left SEAT, Chevrolet and Alfa Romeo look decidedly average in comparison and a long way back in the point standings.
Tarquini was a solid fourth to be the best of the rest', ahead of Thompson and Larini, who ensured their respective teams would at least feature in the points this weekend.
The battle for the latter end of the points positions meanwhile kept the healthy Brno crowd entertained, with Andy Priaulx eventually triumphing in seventh having battled his way up from the back of the grid following his crash in race one.
However, that came after an intense fight with Jordi Gene for much of the race, the Spaniard also rising up through the ranks from his race one misdemeanour, but blotting his copybook when he made a rather desperate lunge at team-mate Tiago Monteiro for seventh at turn one, causing both to skate round the outside of the corner, fighting to stay on the track.
