If it didnt cross it was on the outside line through the traps. It sure was close.

Good driving by both drivers for sure

I watched it a few times, trying to pause (around 19 seconds) right as he crossed the outer line (to his left). Each time I did, I saw win lights at the same time or before. So its really close.

[EDIT] I actually did get it to pause where it looks like he crossed, and no lights are on yet.
