I've seen two absolute boneheaded mistakes in the pits this year and am wondering why....are penalties not stiff enough or are we just that absent minded. With all the discussion about speed limits, and safety in the pits, etc, I've seen a bike running backwards on hot pit and an attempted refuel while the bike was still running. In addition, I've seen a bike crash and not come in for a couple laps....was it leaking fluids, etc...while it circulated....who knows. But seems, to me anyway, these incidents have much bigger potential implications than speeding in he pits.

To me, infractions like these are lap losing ones, not seconds in the pits. I assume anyone and an team can make these mistake but the ramifications seem too lenient to me.

Just an observation from a Team owner, rider, and spectators position.
