Now I see where you are coming from.
IMO the penalty is not in keeping with the charge or the circumstances of the incident.
I agree that the incident hardly qualifies as a race driving breach but rather one of general (as you say) or common assault. As such a tougher penalty is normally warranted.
A disqualification would I suspect be normal warrant for such activity....
Oops now edited that to driving suspension.
