The might not have had the riveting action like we expected it to thanks to , but at least one battle for the win did get interesting after the race ended. Officials disqualified the winning team in ’ second-tier class, over an illegal device to speed up pit stops.

In the Le Mans Prototype 2 class, G-Drive Racing’s No. 26 car driven by Roman Rusinov, Jean-Eric Vergne and Andrea Pizzitola won by an entire two laps over second place on a , which means the car won by... a lot. (Or about 17 miles, for you “bloggers can’t do math” commenters.)

But Le Mans Monday that maybe the No. 26 car’s huge win wasn’t all due to the new rules . Instead, an illegal strategy could’ve helped—the No. 26 and the No. 28 TDS Racing car that in LMP2 got dinged for “non-compliance of a part in the fuel restrictor,” according to a Le Mans .

The Le Mans announcement didn’t say much about the penalty, other than pointing to a part of the rulebook and saying the “competitor intends to appeal the decision.” The announcement didn’t specify which competitor it was talking about, but reports that G-Drive confirmed it wants to appeal.

Motorsport.com had more on the reason for the penalty itself, which officials basically said was for getting a big, illegal advantage on pit stops:

A stewards’ bulletin issued on Monday evening read: “The technical delegates issued a report to the Stewards that “an additional machined part not featuring in the drawing is inserted into the flow restrictor, changing the wetted restrictor surface described by the regulatory drawing.

“The Technical Delegates provided the Stewards with photos of the restrictor, the referenced part and its assembly to the “dead man valve”.

“The contested part is a machined part that extends from the dead man valve and inserts inside the cone of the Flow Restrictor.

“The Technical Delegates stated to the Stewards that they started their investigation of the competitor’s refuelling system following the race when they noted the competitor was able to refuel significantly faster than any of their competitors.”

If the penalties hold up, the original second-place car that finished two laps behind the No. 26, the No. 36 car of Nicolas Lapierre, Andre Negrao and Pierre Thiriet, will get the win. It’ll also put the original fifth-place car that finished four laps behind the original winner, United Autosports’ No. 32 with Juan Pablo Montoya, Will Owen and Hugo de Sadeleer, will get third place.
