Better at shaking up the race than any other method, and popular apparently.
Random number generator for the lap on which a safety car intervention will take place, and a second dip for where in the field the car will insert itself.
E.G. Lap 20 position 5.
Apparently what is wanted according to the rating of the Chinese GP.

I get your point, but i don’t think there is a contradiction.
I am against this suggestion. If F1 is to remain a sport then it should be allowed that a race can develop in a boring manner naturally where a team and driver can dominate becaus they are doing a better job. However if required, for normal random reasons, a SC is required I am not going to turn it off at that point. I am also going to enjoy it if it becomes interesting.
The issue here is whether you purposely and artificially cause the interest or if it is random.
FWIW I don’t mind a competition in NASCAR. Is that contradictory too? No, I expect different things from that series.
