Vettel - slowed
Norris - slowed
Alonso - slowed
Bottas -didn't slow
Sainz - slowed (but only marginally, and some debate over whether this was from being slow out of the corner)
Flag changes to double yellow
Verstappen - didn't slow

And for those querying the 'green light' on the right hand edge of the track. It is in the pitlane, not trackside and is not visible from drivers'-eye level.

Is that the chronological order of events, because I thought Bottas and Sainz then went past after Verstappen and the flag had been downgraded from double to single?
