Norbert Michelisz was stripped of his fifth place on the grid for both tomorrow’s races at Brno.
The Hungarian’s BMW 320 TC was found twelve kilos underweight during the technical checks after today’s qualifying session and the Panel of the Stewards decide to exclude him from both Q1 and Q2.
As a consequence, Michel Nykjær inherited the last spot among the top-ten in Q1, meaning that he will also start from pole position on the reverse grid for Race 2, while Michelisz will line up last on the grids for both races.
