Its competition. they'll try to do anything within what they can get away with. F1 history is full of that. Remember suzuka '89?
There's your respect. 2 of the most respected drivers in history, ever, but having no respect for eachother when on the track.
there's no such thing as respect between rivals when they're on the track. its win or loose.

And there's a big old asterisk that everyone remembers what happened. To respect and to like are two different things. If Senna thought Prost was a push over, he wouldn't have taken him out. Also, if they didn't respect each other, and you are right, then you have proven my point as to why respect is so important.
No one said anything about letting anyone pass because they respected them.
The problem here is there is a pattern. An VES is doing dangerous things at ~200mph.
Again, give me 1 example. Just 1 where people not respecting you is advantageous. Especially in a team sport.
