Peugeot #1 Marcus Gronholm could yet lose his Cyprus Rally win, after the FIA issued a st♊atement today [Thursday], explaining that representatives of the French team have been called to a stewards meeting next Wednesday.

Yest🐈erday, the FIA received a report on components that had to be checked on both the Peugeot 307 WRC's of Marcus Gronholm and Harri Rovanpera, and the Citroen Xsara WRC's of Sebastien Loeb and Carlos Sainz.

Earlier this week, organisers added that t🍒he result was to be 'con🅘sidered provisional pending further technical checks'.

Following these tests, it can be assumed that the stewards are still not happy with the 307 WRC, although the fact Citroen have not been summoned, may indicate they are in the clear.

The FIA statement read:

"Further to a report received from the FIA technical delegate following the𝐆 2004 Cyprus Rally, representatives of Marlboro Peugeot Total have been called to a Stewards meeting at the FIA Headquarters in Paris onꦰ Wednesday, May 26, 2004 at 1100 hours."

Should Gronho🐈lm and Rovanpera be disqualified, Loeb will take the win, with Markko Mart▨in second for Ford, and Carlos Sainz third.

Neither Peugeot or Citroen hav♌e released any official comment.

More to follow next week...
