Turn 4 definitely looks like it might run out of runoff. But what else am I doing incorrectly, in terms purely of the layout?

The hairpin in the middle looks dangerous when run clockwise.

Too much risk of somebody overcooking the right turn before the hairpin, and ending up in oncoming traffic. You’d be better off if you shortened the track after that right turn, and made it into more of a quick flip-flop series of S turns.

I suppose it could be made like the Circuit Gilles Villeneuve where there’s a wall separating the in-n-out parts of the hairpin (basically the wall Kubica crashed into so spectacularly). Lessens the spectator danger but obviously can be brutal for the driver if they go wrong on that fast right going into the hairpin.
