Kersverse WEC-kampioen Anthony Davidson kan het nauwelijk geloven: "Ik kan nu blij sterven"

SAKHIR - Anthony Davidson en Sebastian Buemi zijn de 2014 LMP1 kampioenen van het World Endurance Chamionship. Hoewel ze in hun Toyota TS040 Hybrid met wagen nummer 8 als elfde ver buiten de punten finshte op het F1-circuit van Sakhir hebben ze toch zoveel punten dat hun enige rivalen voor de titel, Audi R18-coureurs Andre Lotterer, Benoit Treluyer en Marcel Fassler hun tijdens de laatste ronde in Interlagos niet meer kunnen bijhalen.

Direct na afloop van de zevende 6-uurs race van 2014 in Bahrein zei een uiterst tevreden Anthony Davidson over zijn titel: "Het is nog niet tot me doorgedrongen, ik kon mezelf er niet toe zetten te denken da het zou kunnen gaan gebeuren. Ik heb eerder grote evenementen gewonnen maar nog nooit een kampioenschap sinds ik ben begonnen met racen. Het is ongelofelijk. Ik kan nu blij sterven."
