No - track position. The car behind always has the advantage of
choice above that of the leading car, to gain the lead, or get the
choice of tyres.

If Max had not pitted Lewis would have had the tyres and car to pass
him.
Only if there was a restart, & the legality of that is in doubt

I presume they thought that there would be no restart of racing?
As soon as we saw the crash I said "no way they can get that off
track and unlap the lapped cars by the end of the race". And I
was right. I don't even think all of the lapped cars had even
unlapped themselves, had they? And the safety car shouldn't come
in until a whole lap after that, if my memory serves me well.
(which it rarely does, I will confess). The unlapping rule's a
farce as it stands, and if Masi's prepared to ignore it, that
supports my view. But you don't fix bad rules by ignoring them,
you fix them by removing or replacing them.

So why whine about the race director then?

Sorry, but you're wrong.

FFS why don't you get a clue before you stick your nose in.
One has nothing to do with the other.
