Anderstorp 2007: Rydell leads Chevy 1-2-3.

Sunday, 29th July 2007

A final lap charge allows Rickard Rydell to take victory on his WTCC return with Chevrolet, team-mates Nicola Larini and Alain Menu completing the podium.

Tiago Monteiro was a quiet sixth, ahead of a faltering Tarquini, while Robert Dahlgren was an impressive eighth in his bio-fuel Volvo S60, although the point is awarded to ninth place Farfus as Dahlgren's car is only homologated to national specifications.

In the championship standings, Jorg Muller still leads despite his pointless weekend, Farfus' single marker placing him just a point behind him in the standings, while Andy Priaulx is another point further back.

It is the in-form Chevrolet team though, particularly Larini and Menu, that are closing the gap to BMW in front, their points haul putting them to within ten and 13 points off the Muller in the standings and now ahead of the best SEAT, that still of Yvan Muller in fifth.
