| The car was excluded because it was 2.5kg too light at the end of the race. This was due to a nose |
change.
The noses are hand made and the new style they put on was lighter.
We are not talking about the minimum weights, but how much they were under the weight. The amount was 2.5kg.
Directly from Audi Motorsport:
"The title chase was decided as their teammates Marcel Fässler and Emanuele Pirro, who had originally won the LM P1 class on the "Belle Isle Street Circuit", were excluded after the race. At Technical Scrutineering, the #1 Audi R10 TDI was found to be 2.5 kilograms under the requested 925-kilogram weight limit. Following contact with another car during the morning warm-up session, a spare nose had been fitted which was prepared for both cars, not specifically set-up for the #1 car.
