I don't have a FLO subscription, but based on the report, they have to do something to maintain control. When race control makes a decision, the competitors have to honor the call. I understand that in many cases, they can immediately discuss it and try to compel them to reverse a possible bad call, but still, the same race control has to have the final say and must be respected.

That didn't happen, and the Series will have to make examples of the offenders or it will suffer a loss of credibility.
Some heavy discipline and suspensions need to be handed out to both Slate and Burt.

Why wasn't Burt arrested for getting into a fight with the race officials?
