In this instance, generally ok. The cones in that section were obviously hit and moved by an earlier car and thus, they are more like obstacles - especially the first time that a driver sees the "new" configuration.

Also, it looks like the #100 is gaining on the Cayman and in previous corners the Cayman driver overslowed (and then made it up in horsepower on the straight), so the #100 might have also been taking the best line to avoid the Cayman.

Last, in subsequent laps, the #100 takes the traditional line which is what leads me to make the above statements.
