Of course nobody want to go against FIA or any authority. But internally there was big discussion about it before the race and also during. Everything is about GPS technology, which was never projected to measure the speed. So there were lot of issues, unit not showing speed properly, some driver were braking two times as first one was not identified etc. And as you can see, no penalty was finally applied. And from "outside" of the car, it looks really strange when in straight part, where you should feel the speed and there is no obstacle, cars are suddenly extremely slowing down "for nothing".
