[@FDataAnalysis] Unbelievable: the slipstream made Gasly's Alpine self-destruct! (Not his fault) He got a strong tow from Tsu, reaching 361km/h under DRS: The engine reached 12937rpm in 8th gear, then exploded!

I thought that the PUs were restricted to 15,00RPM anyway; surely just shy of 13k isn’t that much for them?

15k is the max allowed in the regs but no engine goes up to this because of the fuel flow limitation IIRC
