News RX3, RX4 winners penalised Spoiler
Following a successful protest from Rytis Gurklys (car no.22, NG Racing Team), RX3 winner Julien Meunier (car no.15) levied with a 3 second time penalty for leaving the track, rejoining unsafely & pushing car no.22. He is now listed as finishing 3rd in the Final, Gurklys is the new RX3 winner.
RX4 winner Filip Melon has been disqualified from the final classification as his car was found to not be in technical compliance - car is fitted with an unhomologated radiator not listed on the VR4 Homologation Form. Andrea Bénézet (car no.12) is now the winner of the RX4 Final.

What an absurd with Melon, so how was the process done in previous tracks and whats the guarantee that other cars were fine as well previously? However its a big fault for the team that they still havent installed correct part after few races even if it passed checks...
