Larini Finishes Second; Huff Third In Monaco Of The East MACAU, 18th November 2007 – For the fifth time this season, Chevrolet Lacetti driver Alain Menu converted his pole position into a race win, an all-time record in the history of the World Touring Car Championship. In the streets of Macau, the Swiss driver dominated the first race, despite a jumped start from championship leader Muller. Rob Huff steered clear of the typical Macau mayhem to score a fine third place behind Alain, while in the second race Nicola Larini fought a race-long battle with James Thompson and Tiago Monteiro to finish second for the fifth time this year. The team’s excellent results at the WTCC finale were witnessed by Chevrolet’s partisan crowd, led by General Motors Asia-Pacific CEO, Nick Reilly, who is one of the WTCC programme’s biggest supporters. In the 2007 World Championship, Nicola Larini finishes in fifth, Alain Menu in sixth and Rob Huff in ninth, while Chevrolet finishes third in the Manufacturers standings.
