The reason for the penalty was 'the minimum tire pressure being below the minimum value given by the tire supplier'.
Speaking after the race, Da Costa cited a slow puncture of his tire as the cause of the drop in tire pressure. Da Costa also criticized officials for "not being good enough".
Porsche filed an appeal immediately after the race, giving it 96 hours to file a formal appeal. That deadline expired on Thursday.
