In a dramatic twist following the conclusion of the 24 Hours of Le Mans, Ferrari has been officially disqualified after a late investigation by race stewards uncovered a significant technical breach.
The decision, announced hours after the race ended, comes as a huge blow to the Italian team, who were initially celebrating a strong finish at the iconic endurance event. According to the official statement, post-race scrutineering revealed irregularities relating to fuel flow data and potential technical infringements that violated Le Mans regulations.
Ferrari had been under scrutiny throughout the race weekend, with rival teams raising concerns about specific elements of the car’s setup. The stewards’ final report confirmed that the breach provided an unfair advantage, forcing officials to issue the disqualification ruling.
This verdict dramatically reshuffles the official race standings, handing victory to Toyota, who now claim their latest Le Mans win by default.
Ferrari has yet to issue a formal statement but is expected to lodge an appeal against the decision. The controversy is certain to spark further debate over technical compliance and fairness in endurance racing.
