I love this video 
I was going to post it but being that it was from an SCCA race I thought some might object.

Yes, it was because he gave the "not ready signal" when he waved at her, which puts you automatically at the back of the grid
So she was correct in holding him up, but since this was only his 2nd ever race, he didn't realize what he had done. Doesn't matter if you're the pole sitter, if you are not ready to go at the whistle, to the back you go.... In the SCCA you do your first 2 races wearing rookie stripes on your car--he had to do another race successfully to get rid of them. He went on to dominate in his class and I hear that he is a really nice guy, though the red mist clearly got the better of him there....
