![How fighting till the end brought us a disqualification at @fiaerc @rallyislascanarias_official. 💔
Short story: we got a big bottle of water to nurture a coolant leak so we could finish day 2 of the rally & we got disqualified for this, as it is considered a serious infringement of the FIA Regional Rally Sporting Regulations.
Rally is one of the toughest sport, but the lessons I learn along the way are of proportional value. I grew into this sport hearing stories about heroic gestures of rally drivers. In moments where anybody else would have given up, iconic figures show us how words like committed, resilient, resourceful and “never give up” really look like. 💪🏻 Here are some relevant to our story.
🔸Rally Argentina, 1998: Colin McRae used a rock from the side of the road to fix his suspension 🪨
🔸Rally Mexico, 2014: Thierry Neuville poured the Corona beer he got on the power stage podium to manage a hole in the radiator and secured third place overall, Hyundai’s first ever WRC podium 🍺
🔸Rally Finland, 2022: Esapekka Lappi rolls on a stage and fills his radiator with water from a nearby lake, and in the end secures a podium place 🐟
🔸Rally Acropolis, 2023: Again Lappi, this time refilling a damaged radiator with tap water from a restaurant on the road section 🚰
These are just few of the high-profile examples we love to watch on TV, because they simply inspire us to never give up, to always find a solution to any given problem. Is it a double standard? ⚠️
On day 2 at Rally Islas Canarias, after SS6 we noticed a significant water leak which later proved to be a broken rubber hose. 💧 We refilled the car with water on the road section using everything we had: our camel bags plus one water bottle we got from a small shop in a village before SS7 (the ocean was too far away 🙂). We drove the last stage (21,15 km) on road mode in order to protect the engine for overheating (especially after our retirement in Rally Hungary two weeks ago).
