It's team tactics when one team does it. When a manufacturer gets a number of teams to orchestrate a certain result it's called race fixing. In other sports this kind of behaviour gets people banned from competition.
Imagine in F1 Toto Wolff getting McLaren, Aston Martin and Williams to so obviously pull over to wait for and waive by Hamilton into a higher points position to secure the WDC? They'd be excluded from the season's standings and likely slapped with a 9-digit fine.
Meanwhile in DTM the incident didn't even make the official highlights reel from that race. That's all you need to know.
