Default Lambo Huracans Penalized for Sandbagging Daytona 24 hour
All the Huracans were penalized -- with 5 minutes being added to their total race time. The highest place Huracan dropped from 5th to 10th.

No, just the Huracans who were well over a second quicker.

According to this article the Huracans were using last year's Audi restrictor which produced more hp.

Interesting, especially since they're based on the same chassis

After the diesel emissions fiasco you would think VW brands would err on the side of caution.
