That was what i wondered, he had to give back the places until he was in the position he entered the pits in, but theoretically he should have waited until there was a gap in the fast lane, so should have been last, because no one in the queue had the obligation to let him in - or am i missing something?
He tried to "cheat" his way to first, gave back a few places but was still further up than he would/should have been....
The more I read the rules, the more interesting this is:
- If a standing start is planned, everyone is actually obliged to go to his starting location.
"Once the safety car has entered the pit lane all cars, with the exception of those required to start from the pit lane, must return to the grid, take up their grid positions and follow the procedures set out in Article 36.109to 36.1413"
- You are allowed to overtake "delayed" cars, which also covers the wheel exchanges.
- Once a car is not "delayed" you are not allowed to overtake. In reality you can not say the cars waiting at pit exit are delayed, so it was wrong to drive by them. The right position was when Rus was moving again and as far as I can see it, the position would have been rather in front of Alo than behind.
