It's an issue of the cars being in the same relation to one another at a given point on the lap, every lap, lap after lap. Thus, you very quickly know who will be ahead at start/finish, or in the middle of 1 and 2, or at the end of the back straight on each lap (for as long as the battle ins't interrupted by pit stops or a tellow), which takes the unpredictability out of the battle. This is racing, NOT formation flying.
