Fabian Kreim has become German Rally Champion 2019. Although he was disqualified in the last round this weekend, the 3-Stadte-Rallye.
Dinkel crashed out on the 7th stage. From the photos it looks like he is pretty deep into the trees, but Kreims onboard camera video showed clear trackmarks, a ripped of bumper next to road, and some bushes laying on the road. This was enough indication to stop to check if crew was OK, or not, so this lead to Kreims disqualification.
Kreim could keep his powerstage points, what finally crownd him champion, with 1 point lead to Gassner who eventually won the event.
The Dinkel crash was a big off for sure!
