I’m trying to understand what exactly happened in the Abu Dabi F1 2021 Drama, but as someone very new to racing I don’t seem to understand what exactly happened. I keep hearing lapped cars were allowed to unlap, but as someone who hasn’t seen that match or any for that matter, I don’t exactly know what that means.

The basic problem is that overtaking is difficult. If someone is faster than you, than you have to deal with it. You have to overtake them to get in front.
But if someone is a whole round behind and makes it difficult for you to overtake then that feels unfair. So there is a rule to bring them into the same round again.
