Hi guys, after seeing the picture of Leclerc's Ferrari crossing the line in Monza with Colapinto in the same shot, something occurred to me that I have not been able to answer.
You see, Leclerc won the race, and Colapinto finished a couple of seconds behind Ricciardo who had a penalty, so the positions were switched.
But what would have happened if Leclerc had lapped Colapinto? That would have been the end of the race for COL while RIC still had a lap to go, so even if the difference crossing the line to the last lap was smaller than the penalty, would he (RIC) have retained his position?
Yes, he would retain position.
