Who at race control was at the helm? Did the marshal inform race control of the sticky situation in the first place? Did race control see enough carbon fibre on the racing surface (which is dangerous) to call caution immediately?

Now David Hoots would have called the safety car quicker than that. There is no reason for cars to be running even one lap through that knowing there is a potential for probably 40 punctured tyres because of this.

Enough carbon fibre or oil on the tarmac should be safety car worthy. Those are two cases where safety cars make sense.

There should be an announced safety car speed (60 km/h, 80 km/h, 100 km/h).
