Penalty storm with consequences: Mapelli loses maiden DTM win, celebrations at McLaren

Fans at the Lausitzring had to wait a long time, but more than four hours after the end of Saturday's DTM race at the Lausitzring, McLaren driver Ben Dorr was retroactively declared the winner. The McLaren youngster takes his first DTM triumph because the provisional winner Marco Mapelli received a 15-second penalty for speeding under Full Course Yellow.

The Italian Abt Lamborghini driver drops to second place because Ricardo Feller, who had celebrated third place in the Manthey Porsche after the race, received a 15-second penalty for the same reason. The Swiss driver remains third, as Aston Martin driver Nicki Thiim was 20.703 seconds behind Feller at the checkered flag.
