Good to see. The way drivers had to rejoin the track was really strange. Not to mention dangerous.

with Lewis Hamilton apparently pointing out that he’d never seen a car have the type of accident that the barrier extension was designed to prevent.

Sure, it's not like there have been freak accidents in motorsport that killed people. If some day it does happen, everyone is blaming the FIA for not preventing it.

Concerns are fine and perhaps the wall is bad, but this comment is ridiculous.
