Tarquini and Muller ready to ride

The final fight between Gabriele Tarquini, Yvan Muller and Augusto Farfus will finally take place. Friday, after qualifying during which Tarquini and Muller made mistakes, Farfus expressed his wish to see his opponents get back on their feet. Indeed, a world title gleaned without fighting against the Seat drivers would have a much less exquisite flavor for the Brazilian.

After a final examination carried out by FIA doctors Jean-Jacques Isserman and Jacques Tropenat, they concluded that the two Seat drivers were in good health and could participate in Sunday's races. This is not the case for James Thompson, who is equipped with crutches and suffers from bruises. In addition, the Briton's car was beyond repair to start Sunday's races. This is also the case for Stefano d?Aste, who saw his BMW destroyed in qualifying by James Thompson.

Yvan Muller, deemed fit by the FIA ​​doctors, will therefore be able to fight for the world title on Sunday in Macau. “ I am able to run, I feel good, although I have some muscle pain, confides the French pilot. I bend but I don't break. There were also doubts about my car but the team did a fantastic job. They spent a lot of man hours on it, but they did it. I'm a little disappointed because my time before the crash was good. but I was probably going too fast! It is impossible to predict what may happen in Macau. »
