MODERATORS
Caring at all about minor violations of the track limits, as it seems like everyone involved didn't for the previous 20 years of F1 before this recent round of nonsense began, adds nothing but annoyances to the sport.
I think for qualifying the minor violations should still result in a laptime being deleted. For the race, I think only clear, excessive violations of track limits should be punished.
What's excessive then? Maybe they can let the race director and stewards decide based on current mood, again. We had clear rules applying to all for only two seasons. That's enough. Right?
That would be far too sensible. I guess the problem there is that if there is no clear cut limit teams who get penalised would start appealing decisions and it would be utter chaos.
