Michael Masi was never the race director for Supercars, he was only the deputy to Tim Schenken so he did not ban weaving in supercars, the rule is supercars is that once the safety car lights go there is no weaving allowed and all cars must maintain a speed which is supercars is 80kph. The lead driver can then choose when to go one the safety car is in pit lane but once he goes he can not then change his mind and slow down.
The other thing with the safety car restart is that we did not have any problems with the safety car restarts in the F2 and F3 races on the main start and the lead driver did not take off until he got to the start line the same as Bottas, also the commentators were saying that due to the length if the straight that the drivers will not go until the last minute so the drivers at the back in F1 should of known that Bottas would not be going early
