Patrik and Göran disqualified from Rally
Sweden
After a tough start in the morning after lunch
everything stated to work and Patrik got three
stage wins in the afternoon and was only 22 seconds
after the leader Andreas Gröndal.
But at 10pm it all changed.
It all started with that the URT-Team got a meeting
call from FIA around 10pm. The reason for the
meeting was that the team was using the same rims
that they used last year. The issue is that these
rims are a little bit lighter and no longer approved
for this year something that the team simply missed
out. Therefor FIA took the decision to disqualify
Patrik and Göran.
-It feels really awful to get a punishment
like this for something like this but I don´t
blame the team it has never been any problems
before it was just a mistake says a very
disappointed Patrik.
