Sadly, NASCAR and other bodies have "criminalized" setting things mono e mono in the garage and such, while in actuality using any on or off track incident to spice up the show because controversy sells. Helmet throwing or gesturing at a guy on track will get you nothing, while, for example, Marcos Ambrose and Casey Mears got fined $25 grand and $15 grand respectively for doing the "better" option and having a fist fight in the garage at Richmond this year. Sadly, such a boxing match would be a safer option than getting close to race cars even when they're going pit speed.

To be honest, on that end, I can't blame people claiming that such things make out the sport to be the WWE at best, and a place where hot heads and really do some stupid stuff and really hurt someone or themselves, or worse, at worst.
