The teams that raced didn't deserve what they got. FIA and F1, however deserve everything that's coming to them. It's a little assinine to try to control costs by limiting teams to 1 set of tires per race weekend when the team budgets run upward of $300 million US. (No one will say just what the team budgets are, however when the Ford/Jaguar team (now red bull) needed a wind tunnel they built one for $125 Million US without even batting en eye)

The One tire rule is in itself an accident waiting to happen, just look at what happenned to Kimi Rainkkonen in Canada. He flat spotted a tire, and kept going because it didn't fall within FIA's guidance on when it was okay to change tires. The vibration from the flat spot eventually destroyed his suspension at speed, and sent him off the track at 150+ MPH, yet that isn't a reason to change a tire.
