The disqualification itself is not a problem. Both Ferrari and merc were hitting the floor pretty hard on the back straight and this was always an issue.

The problem is only few cars being checked. All of them should be checked especially if it is found that there are some breaches. Atleast one car from each team should be tested

Imagine if we had a US GP and only a handful of cars finished the race...

Imagine if we had a US GP and only a handful of cars ~~finished~~ started the race...

I didn't watch f1 for years after that.

The 2005 Indianapolis F1 race where only 6 cars started because of tire safety issues.
