Isn't this effectively what McLaren did last year in Hungary?

Last year, Norris came in first to the pits to protect against being undercut by Hamilton - and then Norris actually undercut Piastri. McLaren ordered Norris to swap positions - and he thought about if for several laps, before conceding the spot back to Piastri - a move that actually cost Norris in his race with Verstappen - which was still viable at the time.

That was their fault for calling in Norris first, people were calling them out for that at the time too. They swapped back because it was the pit wall's call that flipped the cars, not a racing issue. I'd count a slow pit stop a racing issue and it should have been let go imo
