DTM shock for Porsche team Land: Buus disqualified after P4!

Massive blow for the Land team: The traditional outfit from Germany, which returned to Porsche from Audi in the DTM this year, has been disqualified after a strong fourth-place finish by rookie Bastian Buus in Saturday's race at Zandvoort! The reason for the decision is that the No. 29 Porsche 911 GT3 R was found to be underweight.

The technical scrutineers discovered the discrepancy during the post-race inspection. According to their findings, the car should have tipped the scales at a minimum of 1,332 kilograms but only weighed 1,328.5 kilograms. Even accounting for the two-kilogram tolerance, the car was still 1.5 kilograms under the limit.
