The problem with any rule like this is that it is such a subjective thing to apply. I think the onus should always be on the driver attempting an over taking manoeuvre to complete it cleanly and not to penalise a driver for defending their position robustly.
From what we saw last season, F1 requires more consistency on when they apply a sanctions and the resulting penalties.
