Macau, Nov 17 (IANS): Briton Robert Huff won an interrupted final race of the 2013 FIA World Touring Car Championship season here Sunday.

The race featured two lengthy stoppages, the first coming just seconds into the race, with a multi-car pile-up on the front straight at the start, reports Xinhua.

The race was then re-started, with Tom Coronel of the Netherlands leading the way. But it barely lasted a lap, Eurico De Jesus' car left blocking the circuit after he crashed into Tom Chilton's Chevrolet, which was limping back to the pits after a contact with the wall. That caused a second pile-up, which led to the race being stopped again.

The race was re-started for a four-lap sprint to the end, with Huff barging past Coronel on the run to the Lisboa on the second lap to set up the win.

"I didn't come here realistically thinking a win was possible," said Huff. "It was always going to be tough, so I'm very happy with the results. I seem to click around here. It just works. I'm very happy, very excited. Today could not have gone better."

Pepe Oriola finished second, who breezed past Coronel on the run to Lisboa at the start of the last lap. Coronel hung to take the final podium spot.

Race one winner Yvan Muller could manage just sixth, after scraping the wall during the small amount of running between the two stoppages.
