Marc Rheinard is now officially the best electric touring car driver in the World after he became the first double title holder by winning the 2008 IFMAR Electric Onroad World Championships here today in Thailand. The German was always one of the favourites coming into the event along with his great rival & friend Atsushi Hara but no one could have predicted such a dramatic finish to the event.





The video above shows the 3rd and deciding leg of the 2008 ISTC Touring car World Championships A-main in which Marc Rheinard takes the win to claim the World title.
