At the end of this year's Mexican GP, Gary Leighton went home with pole
position, a won race and the fastest lap time. The race itself was
decided in lap 27 when Gary took over the lead from S.RS Turbo team mate
David Zasitko. The biggest drawback went to Ron Vance - he lost two
minutes in just two laps. This ruined his chances to finish on 3rd or 4th
place that he held before this incident in laps 20 and 21.
