Gino passed Baz on the final lap, pushing him off the track. Not knowing, Rea rode defensively to protect his lead, the Frenchman fought back for one last challenge towards the end, with both riders almost coming together as they approached the finishing line but it was Rea who got there first in a race where the circuit's timing screens had struggled to keep up with all the changes of position.

Gino Rea (Race result 1st, Championship 3rd):
"Unbelievable! I've been chasing that win in this series for that last two years and to do it in the last race of the season - I'm lost for words. For the last three weeks all I've thought about is this race. I've trained harder than I've ever trained before. Andy (Stone) and I did loads of practice laps around this track on the scooter together. It all goes to show that if you put the extra effort in, it really works. When Loris came up on me on the last lap, I thought there was no way I'm letting him through now. I didn't know he'd run off until he told me afterwards. It's been a great end to a great year. Dan's been a really good teammate too, and you don't get that in a lot of teams. I want to say thanks to everyone in the squad for all their help, but especially Andrew Stone, Richard Baker and my mechanic, Andy Williams."

Gino will race in the WSBK European Superstock 600 Championship again in 2009.
