I post this because i thought to an option to add the the parameters of the leage. The creator can choose if the collision between cars are enabled. It can avoid that the first car can be one lap ahead of the second and make more interesting race. And this option can introduce the safety car. The SC can deploy if there is a crash or an incident like in the real race.

This topic has already been discussed on the forum 100500 times. Every time people argued whether it was necessary or not. There are some arguments for and against this, and I doubt that it will be introduced in the near future.
About losing a lap: in strong leagues, almost everyone, with the exception of outsiders and those who forgot to set up the car, finish the race in a lap, fighting until the end. This, of course, happens mainly in the elite, although in some leagues there are also active teams in the professionals. You're a rookie now, and there are always few people there, because 90% of people quit the game as soon as they download it, and their accounts remain in the league useless to anyone. Rise to the elite, everyone is fighting there. And if there are a lot of inactive players in the elite, it is necessary to change the league.

Apart from the reasons above which explain why this will never happen (actually it’s been suggested by managers with less than 5 minutes in the game probably a billion times).
It wouldn’t even have the impact you think. The reason you are finishing a lap ahead is because you are the only active driver in your division. No one else is setting and probably haven’t logged on for a month or so, i.e. they have quit.
Your suggestion would mean your races would take an age as pretty everyone apart from you would trigger a safety car. In active Elite divisions it would trigger anger and frustration as races would be ruined as they were before when it was briefly tried and the player base revolted against it. This isn’t the type of game where collisions, VSC’s, safety cars would have any positive impact on the game.

All I have to say is...
NO!
And I shall, now, reply no more on this thread.

Well, collision NO.
Safety car... why not for 2 times in the season.
But, if it is developed, the next things which happens would be further suggestions for having the possibility with additional options for safety car. And that's the reason for me to say, there are other things to do for the devs.

So yes, I also agree that there is no need to add accidents... I can imagine what the finish would look like on some tracks, for example, in Italy and Austria, when everyone uses kers at the finish in a heap :)
