I understand why FIA is doing this, but I fear that sooner or later we'll have a bad accident because of these rules.

Ya this will be interesting that's for sure.

But really they had little choice but to do something like this, or go back on the radio ban altogether. Otherwise teams would just follow Mercedes' example in Silverstone and risk losing 1-2 spots rather than potentially losing significantly more.

Edit: And with the way the stewards take their time to allot those penalties, every race result would be uncertain for hours and hours after the actual race ends lol

The easiest, and probably safest, way to avoid what happened in Silverstone would be disqualifying the driver. With nothing to gain and everything to lose, there will be no reason to do it, unless it's completely necessary.
