He therefore drops to third place (from second) and is now just one point ahead of Yvan Muller in the title chase. <BR> <BR> The penalty relates to the incident with Phil Bennett when Bennett made what looked to be a genuine passing move at Riches and Plato refused to give way. "Phil bit off way more than he could chew, way more," was Plato's version of events.<BR> <BR> Amendment: the two drivers are now level on 205 points.<BR> <BR> Adiposement: David Addison's first amendment suggests that it is 206 - 205. We'll see.</FONT></TD></TR> </TABLE><BR> </CENTER> <BR><CENTER><font size="1" color="#808080" face="Tahoma">Copyright ©2000-©2023 TotalMotorSport</font></CENTER> </td> </tr> </table> </body>
