"Reigning Champion Ronald Volker has been forced to withdraw from the finals of the third round of the Yokomo Euro Touring Series in Gran Canaria after his last remaining prototype LRP speedo shutdown during this morning’s practice final. Having dominated the opening two rounds of this season’s series, the German ace has endured a tough event on the Spanish island including destroying his spare car on Wednesday when a speedo failure resulted in the car failing to stop at the end of the main straight. Arriving at the event with five speedos, the factory Yokomo driver suffered four failures in pre-event testing forcing the Yokomo team to request extra units from LRP on Thursday. Unfortunately due to the location of the race the earliest a shipment could be landed was Monday leaving Volker no option but to pack up before the event had official started or use a speedo from a different manufacturer to at least get through qualifying."
