The number 68 Ford Chip Ganassi Ford GT have been disqualified from the results of the 2019 Le Mans 24 due to a technical infringement.


A report from the FIA and ACO Technical Delegates following post-race scrutineering said that the “total on-board fuel volume [was] found to be in excess of the permitted limit".


The maximum permitted volume per the Endurance Committee Decision for the car was 97 liters, and scrutineering revealed the #68 Ford’s tank to hold 97.83 liters.


It is understood that another Ford is under investigation, but as yet we have no further information on this.
