Honestly, am I the only one who thinks this is less than a slap on the wrist for such behaviour?

Racecourse ban for horsebox driver who drove at traffic stewards

https://www.bbc.com/sport/horse-racing/56845060

Iirc in the Racing Post article (which I can’t find now) it was reported that he was going to take an anger management course, but couldn’t afford it! And his employer said he’s a bit wild. Hm, this is more than a bit wild sir.

He sounds like a piece of work

I loved the fact that his legal team said that he wasn’t as bad as the BHA were making him out to be

He “blows hot and cold” apparently, and sounds very much like one of those people who leaves a trail of unhappiness in his wake as he goes around ruining people’s days with his overreactions.

Perhaps the end of the ban should be made conditional on him actually completing the anger management course. If he can’t afford to pay for it, perhaps his employer who he is representing at the racecourse may want to chip in.

“Blows hot and cold” sounds like a seriously unstable individual who either needs to splash out on the anger management course or find a less stressful job that doesn’t involve driving. Woeful penalty for such behaviour.
