Allegedly, the car was disqualified after practice, due to some technicality, so Hamilton retired to the bar. Later that same day, and just before the start, the Jaguar team's appeal was upheld and they could race. So Hamilton was extracted from the bar and carried back to the pits, rather worse for wear and did start the race. Then refuelling stops consisted of petrol for the car and black coffee for Hamilton.
