What am I doing wrong here?

I have watched the video five times and I keep on getting Bummer! Make sure you're using the shortcut for repeating patterns of tracks.

style.css 
/* Complete the challenge by writing CSS below */

.wrapper {
  display: grid;
  grid-template-rows: 300px;
  grid-template-columns: repeat(2, 2fr 1fr) repeat(2,1fr 2fr);
}

Wouldn't your code result in something like grip-template-columns: 2fr 1fr 2fr 1fr 1fr 2fr 1fr 2fr (expanding your 2 repeats)

Hint - Try just 1 repeat() with the repeated values only within the repeat operation.

Does that make sense?
