Allen escaped punishment despite two tyres being recorded under the minimum 16 psi mandate while on the grid.
However, in an unusual twist, Supercars has lodged a notice to appeal Motorsport Australia’s decision.
“We are surprised to learn that Supercars has chosen to appeal the outcome of the independent Motorsport Australia stewards’ hearing regarding the #26 Penrite Racing Ford Mustang in Race 25,” said Grove.
“To our knowledge, this is the first time Supercars has appealed a decision arising from a Motorsport Australia stewards’ hearing to overturn the decision and have a sanction imposed on one of its teams.
“If Supercars chooses to proceed with this appeal, we are fully prepared to contest the matter and once again present the facts that led to the original decision.”
