Viktor's passed (I assume barely) while Marc's did not (again I assume barely). RedRC does not provide info on other drivers having been checked and whether or not their cels were close to or over the limit either when hot or after cooling down at any point during the competition.
It may well be that this only made the headlines because it delayed Marc getting a well deserved Euro title and not that he was the only one. But like you say, we can only speculate at the moment.
