A technical infringement has cost the #6 K-Pax Lambrghini pole for the upcoming 24 hours of Spa.

According to SRO's official statement:

"The engine parameters of car 6 are not in line with the Balance of Performance test and the air filters used by car 6 are not in line with the ones used by Lamborghini during the Balance of Performance test."

The #88 AKKODIS ASP Mercedes of Marciello, Gounon and Juncadella inherits pole position for the race that starts 15.45 BST today.

The #6 Lamborghini has its Super Pole times deleted, dropping the car to p20, and gets an extra grid penalty of 10 places dropping the car to 30th. K-pax can still appeal the stewards' decision.
