I really wish Grand-Am would crack down on this kind of behavior. I know there's "racing incidents" but this was just blatant stupidity. There just needs to be a rule that if while recovering from a spin,etc. that if your action is the direct cause of another incident that you're suspended for the following race. Do it a second time in the same season then your season is over.

And while I don't claim to know anything about actual road racing, why the hell aren't the corner workers more involved in making sure this kinda crap doesn't happen. It seems to me that having the corner worker hold the car until the track is clear would be an easy solution to this problem.
