I was thinking for something REALLY serious, like the Plato/Neil handbags at dawn at Rockingham a few years back what about Banning the driver for 3 races and the team being forced to 'promote' a younger driver from the support races to showcase their talent and give them a leg up.

Opinions?

In reality its too complicated to happen.

With few exceptions all drivers are paying for their seats, have contracts with their team and sponsors and unravelling these for a weekend and disrupting the other guys championship standings in the support race wouldn't be fair either.

Clerks of the course can endorse licenses leading to a ban via totting up of points and can exclude competitors from results.

Completely pointless for an event that's happened only a couple of times in the past few years if you're being generous with the definition.
