Poor fella can't get a break. He was at least halfway up alongside Kimi on the inside at turn 1 after the restart.
Kimi had, IIRC, Charles Leclerc on his outside at the same time, but Charles actually left enough room for him to take a bit more space if he needed it. Instead, he turned into Oscar on the inside and Oscar copped a 10-second penalty.
Dude could've won the race. Instead he dropped from 1 point down to a whole bunch in the championship.
This is reminiscent of the other 2 Aussies in the last while who've also tended to get the wrong end of the stick - Mark Webber and Daniel Ricciardo.
Heck, even Charles called it correctly, saying the penalty was undeserved. The race officials? Nah.
