No, I'm not conflating anything. The Merc drivers were warned of track limits at Turn 4 during the race. They ignored the warnings. They clearly used that line to gain an advantage. In fact, they told Verstappen since the Merc drivers are using that Turn 4 line, "you go ahead and use it too....if you need to....or until they tell us to stop."You are conflating two different rules, Max fell foul of the general not allowed to leave the track and gain a lasting advantage rule, it was only coincidental or ironic that it was turn 4..
When Verstappen used that exact same line to complete the pass he is penalized. It's a clear case of one team being penalized and the other not penalized for doing the exact same thing.
