Its happened before, I remember Bottas 2020 in Hungary. As far as I know, the timing for the final lights out is random so you can't reliably time it.
Yeah I remember him having a crazy 0.00something reaction time. I even remember Vettel straight up saying he didn't believe that in post races interviews. It was probably a case of perfect anticipation more than reaction.
Trying to find it, I think your thinking of Japan 2019, but I'm not sure.
I was just looking back at Hungary, and he was reacting to something in the car. Same forward, stop, start that happened here.
Ahh might be I was just going from memory. Was Bottas though.
The above comment is referring to Austria 2017 where bottas made an incredible start. It was certain he had predicted the lights and not reacted. He started moving almost simultaneously with the light going out.
