Dakar Rally organisers have disqualified Eryk Goczal in the T3 class for a technical infringement, after he allegedly used an illegal clutch on his Taurus T3 Max challenger.
Eryk Goczal has been dominating the T3 Challenger category in the opening week of the Dakar Rally. However, he and his uncle Michal Goczal were disqualified for using an illegal clutch. The EnergyLandia Rally Team strongly disagrees with the decision and believes another team requested the race committee to eliminate them from the race. They claim that the use of carbon parts in the clutch is allowed and does not affect the vehicle’s performance. Despite planning to appeal, the team is saddened as the case will take 30 days to be heard and their results can no longer be adjusted.
