Robert Dahlgren gets penalized again!

Robert Dahlgren is facing yet another ten places grid penalty. After the engine problems at Gelleråsen the team has been forced to change the engine for the second time this season.
“It is going to be tough to climb up through the field, especially on the Gothenburg street circuit,” said Dahlgren.

The rules say that each engine has to last two races. If it is changed before that, the penalty is to be moved down ten places on the grid.

Just as last season, the speed is there in the Volvo, but not the reliability. Dahlgren took pole for the first race of the year and won the race in a dominating fashion.

But Dahlgren blew his engine in the second race of the year at Mantorp, only to once again suffer from the same problem in the second race at Gelleråsen.

Dahlgren has been on pole in all races, but was moved down to tenth at Gelleråsen. The ambition is to take pole again.
“We have to take pole to at least have a good chance to be in the reversed grid for the second race,” said Dahlgren.
