"But compared to last year it was a bit of an anti-climax and I knew I just had to finish the race really - it was probably as easy as it comes."But it's nice to take a major championship title, not only for me but for the team after all the hard work that they have put in supporting me and working towards this victory."While Sword's wrapped up the title early there's still everything to play for as Jason Dougan, Jeff Dement, Adam Lyons and Swordy's team-mate Tom Church all have a realistic chance of taking the runner-up position in the series with just one round at Pontrilas on September 7 remaining.
