I wondered during the race: why were they allowed to put the car back on track after the 'retirement'?

Is there really no rule to stop that? Like could you conceivably crash, be brought back to the garage, repaired, get back in and rejoin the race? I guess there's little reason to (excepted in a contrived situation like this), but I'd always assumed that was not permitted.

Long ago, they used to have spare cars for just such an occasion! My question is: if a safety car happened during his one lap, would we be required to watch checo unlap himself for 26 laps before going green?

RB said that part of the reason they held him back and had a discussion with the FIA about it, was to avoid that happening and impacting Max.
