Peugeots disqualified

The FIA has disqualified the Peugeot 307 WRC race cars of Marcus Gronholm and Harri Rovanpera from the Cyprus Rally (AW, May 24) for illegal water pumps. Gronholm won the rally and Rovanpera finished fifth. Sebastien Loeb was declared the Cyprus winner and the ruling drops Gronholm from the championship lead to fourth, behind Loeb, Markko Martin and Petter Solberg. Peugeot can appeal the decision, but so far company officials say it won't.

Electrifying!

An electric car will attempt to break the electric-vehicle land speed record on June 9 in Tunisia. The record is 245 mph. Electric engineering company ABB, the firm that built the 32-foot-long car, hopes to hit 300 mph. The attempt takes place at the Chott el Jerid salt flats near the southern town of Tozeur. In tests the car hit 147 mph in just 1000 yards.

New Williams tunnel

WilliamsF1 has completed its second wind tunnel at its headquarters in Grove, U.K., and is claiming it to be "a world-class resource umatched in Formula One.'' The tunnel is capable of providing yaw, pitch, heave, roll, steer and crosswind simulation. Its fan can accelerate air to speeds of more than 175 mph in 30 seconds. Work on the tunnel started in November 2002.
