FIA World RX 2019: World RX of Norway

Father's Day race weekend has gone to Hell. Hell, Norway, that is, because the World RX of Norway event of the FIA World Rallycross Championship made the Father's Day race weekend as awesome as Hell, literally.

As the gates of Hell opened for this kind of action in the heat of the Father's Day race weekend, Gronholm, Kevin Hansen, Baumanis, Abbring, Doran, and Marklund managed to survive through the qualifiers just to seal their spot at the final leg of the World RX of Norway.

At the finals, Niclas Gronholm is emerged the winner of the race, his first, with Kevin Hansen placed second and Janis Baumanis placed 3rd. Reason why is because Anton Marklund was disqualified due to an infringement of the Technical Regulations relating to the front bumper mounting.



After Hell, the gap between the Hansen brothers is now narrowed by a point, Timmy 107 vs. Kevin 106. Andreas Bakkerud's in 3rd with 92 points.

Next event is the World RX of Sweden at the Holjes Motorstadion on the 6th of July.
