Mawer wins world title after controversial fourth round


Australia's Wayne Mawer has won the Formula 1 Men's World Title after a controversial finish in the Round 4 race at Viersel.
The title was not announced until after 1am as the jury continued to deliberate on the incident in the final seconds of the men's race, when Todd Haig's crew turned after the checkered flag and continued on another lap, preventing Tru Blue and Wayne Mawer from crossing the line.
The jury's decision was to penalise the USA crew, giving Mawer the win and the world title.
In his heartfelt acceptance speech at presentation, Mawer congratulated Todd Haig for the week of tough racing competition.

Other great results for Australia...
Jack Houston - Junior Boys World Champion (but we already knew that of course!)
Lauryn Eagle - third in F1 Women
Chris Stout - third in F1 Men
Daniel Cotton - third in F2 Men
Maddi Boyer - third in Junior Girls

Team trophies for Australia:

Second in F1
First in Juniors.

CONGRATULATIONS TO THE NEW WORLD CHAMPIONS!

Houston secures world title!
