Solbergs main problem atm is that he can't seem to drive consistently, it was often the same last year in Fabia and Polo. One stage top time, next bad time/spin/crash/puncture. So much like his father. They should work on that instead of encouraging this kind of behaviour. (it often looks like that from the outside)
If consistent performance in current i20 R5 means he is on 3/4th place, then that's it.
Wow, they basically kicked him for rest of season.
Also don't get the part that says he went to Portugal after testing positive when he wrote he tested negative on Monday.
As a related issue Mikkelsen just said he might not be allowed to go to Sardinia cause he might be testing positive for another few weeks after beeing cured from COVID.
Ah they mean he drove from Portugal to Spain after the Thursday test.
Why you are saying this in WRC2/3 forum? Trying to offence?Quote:

I know FIA rules, which are sometimes in clash with local regulations. Lets see...Quote:

6 months seems strict if one of the reasons was a misunderstanding, why wasn't Evans penalized when people who had close to him only found out a week later?Quote:

Donīt understand...
Did both Veiby and Jonas go by own car, to Spain? And Jonas punished with 3 months suspended?
It was against Portuguese quarantine restrictions to leave the country.Quote:

Well, but his statement could be understood he also took a drive alone to Spain...Quote:

Maybe thereīs a separate document for Veiby...Quote:

Do you have anything that proves he is not speaking truth when he says he talked on the phone with someone from organizer COVID team who told them they could drive home to Spain?
(FIA decision doesn't actually contradict this)
I don't know about Portugal and Spain but I do see that in most countries these kinds of rules change almost every week and are close to impossible to follow. So I find that part a bit problematic.
The whole decision does look a lot like "pre-emptive" message to all others in WRC (hundreds?) cause FIA got scared about what possibly "could have been". Arguably it was a close call, say if he infected some of the TV crews on Thursday half of the field could get knocked out before Sardinia. That would totally not look good for FIA/promoter.
The stewards decision clearly states that he breached basically everything he could and considering his record of not respecting rules (his Škoda fuck-up namely) I really don't see why not to believe the official steward's decision.Quote:

Could have been that the organizer told them they can go but have to ask for permission and they didn't ask, could be that he didn't tell them cause he didn't know or thought they know that or could be they didn't talk with any official at all.
Anyway thanks for clarification that your comments is based on "I read the official decision and don't thrust Veiby".
I see Mr Korsia as biggest criminal but everybody here only cares about Veiby.
True, but Veiby has the biggest impact on WRC2Quote:

On the picture you could see a not yet revealed Skoda model (Scala) and more importantly financial/growth goals for next few years. The second part is actually much more important as it has direct impact on the stock market. Someone could make or loose a lot of money based on that. In this particular case I think the growth was less than generally expected. (EDIT: There are no numbers on the scale, but the main point is that profit is much reduced due to WLTP, electrification and some plans in India)
After that he was basically kicked immediately. Hard to argue about that.
Hypothetically if someone he knew made a lot of money based on the info he could even have faced criminal charges. Personally I think he was just showing off (by showing the new Skoda model that was in front of the charts).
EDIT: Here's the pic:

Stated he got permit, though.Quote:
