I'm not at all sure exactly what the rules state. I'd make it a free for all to be honest, perhaps just some stipulations on fuel type. Total fuel usage should not be limited. If they can build a very thirsty car that needs 30 fill ups during the race but it's still quick enough to make up lost time then so be it.

MA, any chance you can provide us with a source for this information?
