Exploiting a flaw in a system is pretty much the definition of cheating, technically or otherwise. I get it that these aren't real FIA sanctioned races, but the basic ideas apply - intentionally driving off the track to improve your lap time is cheating.

I also saw someone cut under the barrier at La Caixa (turn 10 hairpin) on the Circuit de Catalunya. It was the first week of the new OMP so I figured it was a fluke, but I'd assume it's the same thing - someone found a shortcut that cuts more time than the penalty applied.
