If you think that's damning, check out the throttle telemetry here: https://www.reddit.com/r/F1Technical/comments/yuhak3/throttle_telemetry_data_for_all_of_checos_laps/
Going into the corner a fair bit slower too, apex speed 76km/h vs 86km/h on the previous lap. Bit odd for a final quali lap after getting a banker in!
There was a bit of chatter at the time, but it wasn't like Ferrari or Red Bull were going to launch a protest about it!

Looks guilty as sin in that one. Just floored it for a split second and bonk, gentle tap on the wall, session over.
Amazed it hasn't been picked up till now. Was there no chatter at the time?
