The cynic in my thinks that the DQ of McLaren in Las Vegas was manufactured to create a scenario just as this, all part of the fabricated, over-stewarded, manufactured racing that F1 seems to be these days.
I watched some old races from the Gilles Villeneuve days and there was many track excursion, blocking and real racing throughout the races. I have not yet seen a safety car come out in the half dozen old races I watched.
More fun to watch and I wonder how F1 would be if they just took away the over-stewarding, let the teams manage their tires the way they want, did not penalize all but the most egregious behaviour and just let them race....all in cars which are much safer than the scary ones of the past.
