How about all teams must notify the FIA that they will not race on or before the 45 minute mark before the start of the event? The organized protest of going out for the parade lap and then going into the pits is also against the rules (this one is going to be the biggie).
This isn't your average club racing group here, these teams are contractually obligated to race, they need to have a VERY good reason if they aren't and they have to follow a very specific procedure if they aren't going to race. None of that happened this last weekend. They had the good reason not to race, but instead of doing things by the book, they decided to get into an ego contest with the FIA. The problem is that the rulebook, of which they all know and agreed with/signed contracts to adhere to, is against them.
