Yeah - the whole "impeding" thing should be looked at completely differently IMHO when there is a damp track with one dry line. Any driver going off line is clearly going to risk their own competitiveness and potentially compromise their own fast lap as it changes tyre grip and tyre temp - as Yuki was prepping for his fast lap & in the last couple of corners, I can understand why he didn't move off the dry line.
