"During the race, and in accordance with article 27.4 of the sporting regulations, any driver who is judged to have left the track three times at these corners (when counted cumulatively) will be shown a black and white flag," said the FIA in a note to the teams.
"One further crossing will result in a report being made to the stewards for not having made every reasonable effort to use the track. As discussed, this is likely to result in a drive-through penalty for any driver concerned."
This weekend the FIA installed electronic timing loops in the kerbs at turns four and 11 to monitor infringements.
"We would like to make it clear that the loops are set up to register a crossing when a car is approximately 20cm beyond the white line," the note said. "Every lap time achieved by leaving the track will be deleted in accordance will article 12.3.1.d of the sporting code."
