MotoGP introduces penalty points system

MotoGP is to introduce a penalty points system for riding transgressions from the start of the 2013 season. The move follows calls for greater consistency from the officials during 2012, particularly in Moto2 and Moto3, where riders felt several incidents were treated either too leniently or with excessive harshness.
