    Bengue missed RallyGB after he couldn't find a sponsor... when the organisers said the only valid reason to withdraw was medical problems, he got a doctor to say he was too ill.

    The FIA didn't believe him (me neither) and gave him a fine and suspended his license until he pays the fine.
    If the world didn't suck, we'd all fall off!

    I understand rules are rules but how could he have competed if he didn't have the money?

    I think that is really out of order. The one driver who has to pull out from doing the event due to lack of money, is FINED for it? It's a strange world...

    Daft rule, but didnt David Higgins get screwed on this one before? What would have happened if he just showed up in a regular car for scrut and failed it, they need to encourage people to enter, not punish those who do and fail in their efforts to sort a deal
    Deep down I'm a sound bloke!
