Stronger penalties for BTCC drivers

The British Touring Car Championship has introduced additional penalties for bad driving in the series. Fines and licence points have chiefly been used to punish poor driving in the series in recent years, but some paddock insiders felt standards have still dropped too low at times. Now, from 2013, any driver who receives three penalties for on-track driving discipline offences, including verbal warnings, will be relegated six grid spots on the third penalty.
