Now, should car 1 slow down and merge into the right lane to let car 2 pass? Or should car 2 just wait until car 1 has finished passing the row of slower cars?

Car 1 finishes moves to the right lane when it is safe to do so without having to slow down - ie. when he reaches the next gap in the right lane. Car 2 proceeds onward and moves to the right lane in front of car 1 when there is a gap.
The problem happens when Car 1 decides to pass fifty cars without once moving over. This leads to folks passing on the right and weaving which makes things more dangerous for everyone on the road.
