Sandgroper should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
the 10K seemed a little excessive to be honest

Agreed, $10k was ridiculous.
And then he was told to start from pitlane, not even rear of grid.
And disqualified from the race too.
Anything else you can take from him?

I don't recall Giz being penalised like this when he forced Reynolds into the weeds, an incident that ended someone's title chance.

I don't believe Giz hit anybody over 3 corners, including staying in the throttle pushing someone up the road...

Wasn't 3 corners but he stayed on the throttle until Reynolds was off track.

I guess Giz does it better

In incar footage in that is telling, Giz didnt steer, he kept his foot in it but the crash was Davey coming across the track to cover.

Anyway this is actually irrelevant to the discussion, which is unfortunately the temper and poor decision making of someone thought to be championship material.

Now looks a bit more like Rodney Forbes or Paul Romano

Not sure why we're comparing the rules now, to the rules of 3-4 years ago.

It's a new year...

That was quite something. Left his head gear on in case he got a whack.

I'd have faux slipped and sent him to the ground, hopefully whacking his helmet and scratching it so it needed replacing.

This ain't the NRL.

Although one would think it is based on the comments it generate on social media...

I see the problem with Stanaway's penalty is out of all proportion on what has happened in the past.

It is not helped by the opaque nature of the judicial and penalty process and the clearly inconsistent application of the rules over time.

As I have said many times Race Control gets involved far too often in incidents that drivers should be able to sort out among themselves on and off the track.

It's rare - even rarer to be confirmed by interview. Not surprised he copped a bit of pain the in stewards room, particularly as it was not the first penalty for him over the weekend in regard to track "activities" with the same other driver. That sort of stuff needs to be nipped in the bud.

That was different - not really a payback but Mr Ingall copped a belting from the stewards from memory.

Mr Ingall copped something of a belting from the stewards for the Imrie hit and I think from memory that Mr Romano was given a lengthy holiday as well as a fine wasn't he?

Seems like the examples quoted have copped a fairly strong response from the stewards / system so may despite claims to the contrary, Mr Stanaway seems to have been dealt with constantly with similar past behaviour.

Well at least he was honest enough to admit it, but then the stewards have to make a decision. Certainly it is different from past cases. But it is consistent with previous penalties

I think it was strange how he admitted, left the stewards with no choice. Very strange compared with past cases, but it is the right decision

Thanks for the examples, did not come up with all of those. Lots (relatively speaking) of $10k fines in the past...
