I mean, there was one perceptive email to the Racer mailbag in the winter asking why the Indycar pitlane was separated from the track only by a very low wall when if anyone touched wheels on the front straight the potential for a car to be launched left, into the open pit boxes, was high.
And the only answer was that yes, it will be an almighty tragedy when that happens, and changes will then occur, but since it hadn't happened yet, no one was looking at it as a problem.
