I didn't manage to see this, but "Car X has taken the chequered flag twice" is sadly a regular occurrence at all levels of UK motorsport from novices in club racing right through to people at the top end of their respective championships.
It produces an instant invitation to see the Clerk of the Course, do not pass Go (again), do not collect £200, do not go to the podium (if you were).
I've been trackside shoving cars from gravel traps after final lap shenanigans and heard that over the radio. I've also been on the other end of the radio yelling at all and sundry to be extremely careful as car X is bearing down on them.
It gives me the chills.
