"How could he finish 12" later than me?"

The same happened to me at the 500-token-giving Cup. I suppose (just a guess) that the disqualifying countdown doesn't start at some fixed time, but rather starts earlier for the race that stands still; on that occasion, I simply pulled off near the finish line waiting for the countdown to start.

Next time, I'll test that hunch by wrecking a lot (or a little more than usual) in my case), going back and forth the same stretch and, if I can find a suitably wide junction, by going in circles (as I used to do in Career Mode to get stars from drifting thousands of meters).
