(If R1 had attempted to make a tight turn at 2B, R1 would have contacted F6, who did not move after arriving there.)
Instead, R1 avoids running into F6 by continuing to run full speed and step on 2B, then continuing toward left field (but R1 does not leave the infield dirt) for the next few steps in making a big, wide, and longer turn, before R1 can straighten out and then eventually run directly toward 3B.
F2 throws the ball to F5 at 3B. As R1 approaches 3B F5 tags R1. FU calls R1 out.

What do you think?
I think it is in a baseball game.
If in a softball game, the description says F6 obstructed; so after the tag of R1, the BU would call time and award third base to R1.
Umpires are either from some other sport, poor judges, or uninformed.
Not leaving the infield is irrelevant.
