To me it looks like the lead car can't floor it and gap the rest as they will wave off the restart. But if you are a few cars back you can drop back a bit off the chicane, then floor it with push to pass catching the cars in front just as the green is waved but already going faster than the cars infront and overtaking them all just after the flag.
Leader has to control a side by side restart, so he has to let those behind catch up, even if those 3/4 cars back are accelerating when he isn't.
Silly single file chicane too close to the flag is probably the cause.
Doesn't seem fair to me.

The whole restart thing was a bit silly. Look at Pagenauds restart where he gained 5/6 places. He was able to floor it as soon as he came out of the chicane to catch back up with the guys in front and when he gets there he has alot of extra speed and the green flag comes out allowing him to gain a big advantage.
