Was Oscar Even Allowed To Send It?

Oscar Piastri sends it into Turn 1, commits fully, gets 80 percent alongside Kimi Antonelli, and still ends up with the penalty. This clip digs into the real question: did the FIA read the rulebook correctly, or did they punish the wrong driver? Kunal breaks down the freeze-frame, the half-car-length rule borrowed from sailing, and why Oscar literally had nowhere else to put the car once Kimi shut the door. Soumil pushes the opposite angle — how do you define “alongside” when onboards show different reference points? The crew dive into apex geometry, inside-line obligations, lock-ups, and whether the FIA’s interpretation is altering championship outcomes.
