In MotoGP racing, it's handled quite well. They cancel laps for qualifying and during a race, you get an official warning. You do it again with the warning up, you get a 'long lap', which is a small track-detour. Makes you lose a few seconds and with close competitors, also places. It's an immediate punishment during the race for 'touching the green' - the area on the corner exit outside the kerb. Touching kerb is fine, touching green area is a no-no.
It happens every race to a few riders and it's a fuck around and find out event for people who have a warning up on their name.
"If a rider goes outside track limits during a Free Practice, Practice or qualifying session โ onto those areas outside the track surface that are painted green โ itโs an easy one: the lap is cancelled."
"[...]if a rider goes onto the green area three times, theyโll get a Long Lap penalty."
