Yvan Muller has been stripped off his pole position for the final FIA World Touring Car Cup race at Zandvoort, handing team-mate Yann Ehrlacher pole, after a turbo overboost.
Muller had been a clear four tenths faster than any other driver in Q3, but technical inspections revealed that his Lynk & Co 03 had exceeded the turbo pressure limit.
The Frenchman will thus start race three from fifth, handing Ehrlacher pole and also moving Thed Björk up to second, Norbert Michelisz up to third and Augusto Farfus up to fourth.
