I m looking for info on this race Results and reason for a shortened version of the 24 hours

I already know that the 24 hours were chaotic before WWII

Was it open to pure sports cars or modified tourism cars (ad least 4 seaters) ?

1 Desvignes / Mahé Bugatti ?
2 Vasselle / J Trévoux Hotchkiss
3 C Pintacuda/ H Stoffel Lancia Astura ?
4 Paolino / James Buick
5 ?
6 Elwes / Tongue Aston Martin Ulster ?


Thanks in advance

Robert
