Frankly, they need to figure out something the penalties situation in general. Applying a penalty after the race is finished and they can't do anything about it is bs. It needs to happen in real time or, at least, during the race
I mean, the thing they can do in real time is not routinely go off the track. And if that means fucking up a lap and going slow, then that driver has to accept that they can't drive quite as fast on this track. If they want to build a new track that's a couple feet wider on a few corners, go for it - but it wouldn't be the Redbull Ring. Here, in Austria, you have to go at a speed at which you can stay in between the white lines. Some managed it. No sympathy for those who didn't, it's either a choice or a skill issue, neither of which I mind penalising.
Could they just put a gravel trap there instead of a run-off area?
My thoughts as well.
