What the eff, Monza?

It's because Kogay kept running into the gravel this year isn't it?

Seriously, this is terrible.

It's safer, but I think they could still put a 10' strip of grass/gravel in-between the racing surface and the runoff.

Makes it safe, but will still punish a mistake. You'll lose lots of positions, but won't retire.

A strip of gravel wouldn't make it safer. It would be basically a ditch and the pavement lip on the outside of the corner could cause cars to flip.

What the FIA is more like it. Sniff Petrol spoofed this yesterday. Safe & lame at the same time.

Not paving the runoff in the first place.

At the time it was paved (last month?), I read that it was done for the safety of motorcycles, not necessarily for any car-related reasons.
