Wilson on rock saga
@ 02:59 AM - "Obviously I'm extremely disappointed for Markko, Michael and the whole team. It's a blow to our world championship hopes but a decision that we have accepted without appeal. Markko and Michael acted on the spur of the moment in an effort to retain the spare wheel which was not properly secured. It's an unfortunate situation but we must all move forward and concentrate on the next round of the championship in Italy next month."
