As a petition to challenge the recent announcement by Motorsport Ireland in relation to the use of control fuel in all MI rallies gathers pace, it appears that the decision was based on the report of a three-man working group within the Motor Sport Council (MSC). Indeed, the majority of the MSC members were only made aware of the situation at a meeting on the eve of last Wednesday's announcement.
