It's on 28:13 on the alllive SS1 vid.

Sunninen has his front wheel on the startline when the board in the middle changes color. So probably will get jumpstart penalty.

Car #93 has been given jump start penalty already. So why wouldn't Suninen receive it yet?

I think Paddon just dawdled and that gave the impression of his rivals jump start.

All others were up on the kerb, Tanak is just with the right wheel on the grass.

What was imo easier to see was that both Ogier and Mikkelsen were very wide at the uphill left after the tunnel.

-------------------

Paddon vs Suninen start in picture.

The board is still red (turns green next) and Suninen's wheel is on the startline. However, sometimes the sensor is a bit in ahead of the line so might be that he got away with it. In either case it's not like he gained 1s from it.
