I don't think it was intentional to undercut Piastri. I think they boxed to cover off Hamilton and then Lando put up a ridiculous out lap.
Yes. They did it to protect both drivers not give NOR an advantage. Just happened to work out that way. Maybe they should have swapped places in the middle stint but that would have been tricky to negotiate.
And funnily enough that's exactly what they predicted on the f1tv stream. People questioning why Norris would undercut Piastri.
