    I think the big oversights of the sausage kurbs are that they are solely designed to stop a car from cutting and overlook any and all safety concerns.

      curbs have 0 purpose in motorsports i don’t give a damn what your waffling on about they provide no significance in any sort of situation except for it being one awful hazard and a danger for any and all drivers but you f1 people only see it as that bc the fia would sue your ass for thinking otherwise 🤢 go watch some real shit before you get anymore brainwashed

      @@silvy3047 The initial design of that chicane…the one shown in the video…didn’t do much to slow the cars down or encourage overtaking. Even if you got rid of the turtle kerbs and the tire barrier at the exit, there’s not going to be much passing opportunities in that initial configuration.
      Other than those two issues, it wasn’t a horrible chicane.

    Heidfeld's & Sophia's shunts could easily have been fatalities, and Peroni's probably would have been, if in a pre-halo car. I'm no longer concerned about driver injuries, as speed is inherently dangerous, and the safety innovations post 2001 have only allowed them to drive like disrespectful iRacing thugs -- but the people who really need to be safe are the spectators and marshals. If things turned out slightly different those three crashes could have launched into marshals or photographers if they were there, along with 3:33 and 3:00, the latter even having a chance to end up in the seats -- better off putting K-rails or reinforced concrete walls there instead of speedbumps, otherwise you might as well mount ramps on the track if the organizers just wanna see cars fly

      @maxb148 8 місяців тому +9

      It was oil though, when the kerb broke the front splitter of the first car it also broke the oil line which then meant there was oilf on the ground, that many drivers dont go off like that unless there is oil.
      If you don't like Nascar and oval racing that's fine but you don't need to hate on it, they are still very quick drivers even on road courses they beat ex-F1 drivers, and sportscar drivers on road courses.
