Title: Villa Wins Hungarian Sprint Race

Autosport.com - Villa takes another sprint race win

Javier Villa enforced his reputation as the king of the reverse grid GP2 race by winning Sunday's round 13 at the Hungaroring.

The young Spaniard took full advantage when leader Adrian Zaugg was clattered into at Turn 2 by Roldan Rodriguez on lap 10, allowing Villa to nip past. Yesterday's winner Adam Carroll chased him to the flag, but he was unable to find an opportunity to get past.

Rodriguez recovered to finish third, ahead of Lucas di Grassi, who now closes to within one point of series leader Timo Glock.
