Title decider - down to the wire.

Banbury, UK, Friday 11th October 2002: The final weekend of racing in the NDS EuroBOSS Series at Le Mans (26th/27th October) will provide a fitting climax to an exciting season of highly competitive racing. Three challengers are still able to secure the Series title, Team Ascari drivers Klaas Zwart and Phil Andrews, along with Earl Goddard from Kockney Koi Yamitsu. Each will be racing hard to prove that they are the rightful successor to be crowned the most successful driver in the 2002 Series.

On current form Goddard reigns supreme, winning the past four races. Goddard's recent dominant driving display has lifted the 22 year old South African to second place in the standings, just 8 points behind Dutchman Zwart. Birmingham-based Andrews, driving an Ascari Judd V10, is looking to build on his performance of third place at the previous race and regain some of the early season racing prowess which saw him take victory in rounds 1 and 2.

There will be races on both Saturday and Sunday, Saturday's race effectively replaces the German round which was unfortunately cancelled earlier this month. Going into the last two rounds the Series leaders are:

    1st   Klaas Zwart, 70 points

    2nd  Earl Goddard, 62 points

    3rd  Phil Andrews, 54 points

    4th  Harri Toivonen, 37 points

    5th  Karl-Heinz Becker, 26 points

With 15 points up for grabs for 1st place, 12 for 2nd, 10 for 3rd and 8 for 4th in both races the top three drivers are all in with a shout of becoming the' Boss' of NDS EuroBOSS.

The NDS EuroBOSS title decider on the Bugatti Circuit at Le Mans takes place over three days, the on-track schedule is as follows:

Friday 25th October
14:30--14:50 Free Practice (20 minutes)
16:00--16:20 Free Practice (20 minutes)

Saturday 26th October
11:30--11:50 Qualifying (20 minutes)
17:10 Race 1 (15 laps)
