arent all the cars inspected before the race? or the team change the engine after inspection? Thats weird. And to run like that a disappear just points fingers to them as guilty!

Deberian de checar los motores al inicio de la carrera
The problem is even though tech inspectors know a lot, they cannot know everything about every model of car and engine. During a race as long as this one competitors and officials usually get an idea if someone is cheating because of their times and so on.
The teams in a given class are usually the most knowledgeable in that class and the truth will come out in the end just as it did in this case. If they checked every engine before the race it would take days to get done and there is really no need to because it's much simpler to check only the winners. This is how it's been done for years.
¡Qué vergüenza! los conductores del carro 189!
Shame on the drivers of car 189!
Actually I googled the name of the driver: Edwardo Henkel Perez Castro and found out many things weird in his life related to politics and business, so its not surprise that he ended up cheating in a sports competition. Shame on him!!
