I'm not sure if I'm remembering the right set of rules (these might be the IMSA ones?) but I think they don't have to declare which 15 sets before the race, so they can decide on compounds mid-race. The tyres are recorded by RFID so they might've used tyres from 16 different sets by accident, although it was probably too early for that to have happened. The only other "tyre type at the wrong time" rule I can think of is do do with wets so that's not it. Maybe they used tyres from the team car by mistake?

It was definitely the teams fault, the pdf of the decision is in this DSC article and it looks like they got some calculations wrong:quote:The competitor explained that the team checked the Maximum Onboard Fuel Volume before the car was shipped from the USA and that they then rechecked the volume after the change in BOP, however this was done using the weight and density of the fuel rather than by measuring the volume directly. Also worth noting that while a lot of people (not ITT though) are throwing around "only 100ml" they stopped checking once they hit the reported 96.1litres, since it was already over the limit and actually found more than that when they fully emptied the tank during the 2nd check with a team rep present.

Shumagorath posted:It looks like I saw something like an LMP2 but there are also hatchbacks with race liveries...? How many classes are in this? There are 33 classes listed on the VLN site (https://www.vln.de/en/division-into-classes/)but I don't think all of them are in this race. You probably saw the only SPX entrant: the SCG-003, which is built to FIA GT3 spec (the SP9 class here), but they don't make enough of them for homologation so it's in SPX.
